This African American Resource Guide was created especially for use by the educators at Montgomery County Public Schools by Heritage Montgomery. It contains listings of the history, cultural, and natural resources located in Montgomery County that feature African American history. Each listing details the resource and its African American history themes, along with field trip possibilities and digital assets that can be used in the classroom. The sites are organized geographically rather than in chronological order of their histories.

It is our hope that this resource guide will aid educators in planning field trips and lessons plans related to African American history. Heritage Montgomery is committed to keeping this guide up-to-date and welcomes feedback on ways our next edition can be improved.
