    The Texas Freedom Colonies Project Atlas and Study: State Transportation Projects Guide
    (2022-10-27) Blanks, Jennifer; Roberts, Andrea PhD
    The Texas Freedom Colonies Project is an evolving, social justice initiative dedicated to documenting Black settlement names and locations, African American planning history and origin stories, preservation practices, and providing evidence-based research support to grassroots groups. We put freedom colonies on the map, on policy agendas, and in the center of Texas history. The Texas Freedom Colonies Atlas 2.0 allows the research team to upload layers to a web map to illustrate the dynamic relationship between the mapped freedom colonies and opportunities for descendants and stakeholders to voice their concerns regarding possible threats.
