"For Any and Everyone Interested in the Real History of France and the US!" 

Black Paris Tours offers a richly unique cultural experience, providing travelers with information, insight and little known facts about the wealth of Black history in Paris! 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. Find out more information on Black Paris Tour packages! 

Repost from @questlove using @RepostRegramApp - In the 7 or 8 Parisian tours I've taken in my 20+ years coming here. I must say I've been DYING for a tour guide like #Oakland's own/former #RickiStevenson to answer so many questions I've had about how blacks were able to escape the hell that is slavery and find liberation in a place 7500 miles away. So much information I dunno where to begin. From #JoeLouis not being allowed to take his winnings in the states and him investing in nightclubs over in Paris. #BlackJackJohnson being unable to make a living in the states. #EarthaKitt pulling a #JosephineBaker visiting once and deciding to never come back home. #MarshallMajorTaylor being the first international superstar in sports and having major influence on the #TourDeFrance name em #IdaBWells to #LangstonHughes to #JamesBaldwin to #EubieBlake to #QuincyJones to #AlexandreDumas (Sr,Jr&3rd) please take this tour y'all.
