James Baldwin. James Brown. Satchel Paige. These are just a few of the notable Black travelers to stay at Greensboro’s Historic Magnolia House. But the Green Book hotel was also home to the Gist family for decades. Dr. Torren Gatson and Liz Torres Melendez from UNCG’s Museum Studies program join us to talk about a new exhibit now on view at the Magnolia House.
