Tours offered by the Black Heritage Trail of New Hampshire (BHTNH) reveal the region's rich and often forgotten African American history. The stories our Sankofa Scholars have uncovered and now share with visitors illustrate how the earliest Africans in this country were committed to self-determination, resourcefulness, and community service. This nuanced American history continues to shape our collective present and future.
These themed guided tours allow visitors to realize a truer more inclusive history of New Hampshire, connect with ancestral roots, and see the intricately woven cultural cloth that is New Hampshire.
