We are an independent, Black woman–owned walking tour company rooted in Philadelphia and committed to telling Black history with depth, care, and context. Founded in 2019, we began by offering live, in-person walking tours in Old City Philadelphia, centering stories that are often overlooked, erased, or simplified.
Since then, our work has grown to include five live guided tours across the city, each grounded in rigorous research, community memory, and place-based storytelling. To make these histories more accessible, we’ve expanded into audio experiences that allow listeners to engage with Black history on their own time, at their own pace.
For the past four years, our founder has lived between Philadelphia and Chicago, building deep, lived relationships with both cities and their histories. That dual residency directly informs our work, allowing us to approach each tour with local knowledge, cultural fluency, and care rather than a tourist lens.
We currently offer two self-guided audio tours in Philadelphia, with our newest audio tour launching in Chicago, continuing our mission to document Black life, resistance, culture, and innovation across cities shaped by migration and movement.
Our tours are designed for curious locals, intentional travelers, educators, and lifelong learners seeking history that is honest, nuanced, and rooted in the lived experiences of Black communities.
