Mapping Prejudice Transcription Session – The Story of the Tilsenbilt Homes
Wednesday Evening
In Minneapolis, Black entrepreneur Archie Givens recruited developer Edward Tilsen in 1954 to build some of the nation’s first privately developed open housing in the entire United States. Learn about the legacy of Archie Givens while helping us build out the map of racially restrictive covenants! We’re featuring deeds from Dakota County, Minnesota, Anoka County, Minnesota, and from our collaborators in Milwaukee County, Wisconsin. Our team will walk you through the process step-by-step so that you can join the more than 8,000 volunteers contributing to this project.
