Black Paris Tours® takes you to the hang outs, haunts and places made famous by African American musicians, soldiers, writers, artists, historians, celebrities, and political exiles. From the 1800s to World War One, and from the days of the Harlem Renaissance, to the 1970s, they came to Paris fleeing racism in America. Along the way, they joined the list of the world's most famous Black expatriates and visitors.
A special thank you to Blues Man Mighty Mo Rodgers for allowing us to use his "Black Paris Blues" on the videos & website!
