- History
Welcome back, folks! We hope you’re ready for another season of Urban Roots because Season 2 is coming soon – Juneteenth (June 19th) to be exact. Please join us on an urban journey as we explore hidden African American history in cities across the country.
Join us in Brooklyn, New York where we visit Greenwood Cemetery’s Freedom Lots — in Los Angeles, California where we find all the places Biddy Mason’s memory has been preserved — and in Indianapolis, Indiana, where we uncover the hidden gem of Indiana Avenue and learn why Madam C.J. Walker relocated her headquarters there in 1910 .
Our Indianapolis episodes are made possible thanks to funding from Indiana Humanities!

Host and Executive Producer: Deqah Hussein-Wetzel.
