When the self-guided Black Cultural Heritage Trail initiative began earlier this year in Palm Beach County, it wasn’t just about placing plaques or naming streets — leaders told WLRN it was about lifting up stories long overlooked, often left in the footnotes of history.

The tour and map helps reimagine how locals and visitors see Palm Beach County today.

As Juneteenth approaches, this first-of-its-kind interactive tour highlights the deep-rooted impact and presence of the multi-ethnic Black communities across eight cities, spanning the northern, central, western, and southern regions of the county.
