Green Books 1940, 1956 and 1960 (The Green Book Chronicles)The year is 1950. You and a car full of relatives are cruising in a '47 Buick, driving west on the Dixie Overland Highway to California.. Unfortunately, you might not even make it to the Texas border. It is not a flat tire, low fuel or overheated radiator that has sidelined your vacation. Rather it is due to the color of your skin- for you are African American, driving through the Deep South, and night is coming.With the expansion and improvement of roads and highways and a burgeoning fascination with road trips by the 1930s, publishers provided guidebooks for travelers.[1] From Maine to California, thousands of communities isolated African Americans (or sometimes Chinese Americans, Jewish Americans, etc.) by force, law, or custom. It didn’t matter if you were Dorothy Dandridge, Lena Horne, Duke Ellington or Ralph Bunche traveling state to state, if the road was not friendly or obliging, there was no safe haven for African American travellers.The real story of the Green Book, the guide that changed how black people traveled in America"For the Negro traveler, whether on business or pleasure, there was always trouble finding suitable accommodation in hotels and guest houses where he would be welcomed."[2]For black Americans traveling by car in the era of segregation, the open road presented serious dangers. Driving interstate distances to unfamiliar locales, black motorists ran into institutionalized racism in a number of pernicious forms, from hotels and restaurants that refused to accommodate them to hostile “sundown towns,” where posted signs might warn people of color that they were banned after nightfall. Signs typically read "Nigger, Don't Let The Sun Go Down On You In ___."[3] Many brought along boxed lunches in order to avoid being turned away from restaurants or dining cars. [4]Paula Wynter, a Manhattan-based artist, recalls a frightening road trip when she was a young girl during the 1950s. In North Carolina, her family hid in their Buick after a local sheriff passed them, made a U-turn and gave chase. Wynter’s father, Richard Irby, switched off his headlights and parked under a tree. “We sat until the sun came up,” she says. “We saw his lights pass back and forth. My sister was crying; my mother was hysterical.”[5]Victor Hugo Green - WikipediaVictor H. Green, a 44-year-old black postal carrier in Harlem[6] , relied on his own experiences and on recommendations from black members of his postal service union for the inaugural guide bearing his name, The Negro Motorist Green-Book, in 1937.[7] The 15-page directory covered Green’s home turf, the New York metropolitan area, listing establishments that welcomed blacks.[8] The guide's power was that it created a safety net. If a person could travel by car—and those who could, did—they would feel more in control of their destiny. The Green-Book was what they needed.From the preface of the 1940 issue:"The idea of 'The Green-Book' is to give the motorist and tourist a guide not only of the hotels and tourist homes in all of the large cities, but other classifications that will be found useful wherever he may be. Also facts and information that the Negro motorist can use and depend upon."You will find it handy on your travels, whether at home or in some other state, and is up to date. Each year we compile new lists as some of these places move or go out of business and new business places are started, giving added employment to members of our race."[9]The directories listed establishments that catered to blacks—businesses and services including hotels, taverns, nightclubs, restaurants, service and automotive repair stations, tourist homes, roadhouses, barbershops and beauty salons, golf courses and state parks.[10]Listings were organized by state and city, with the vast majority located in major metropolises such as Chicago and Detroit. More remote places had fewer options—Alaska only had a lone entry in the 1960 guide, but even in cities with no black-friendly hotels, the book often listed the addresses of home owners who were willing to rent rooms.[11]Mail carriers were uniquely situated to know which homes would accommodate travelers; they mailed reams of listings to Green.[12] And black travelers were soon assisting Green—submitting suggestions, in an early example of what today would be called user-generated content. For example, in 1949 for Montgomery, AL, the guidebook recommended the Douglas Hotel and Bonnie’s Restaurant as safe places.[13] It listed eight locations in Alabama deemed “safe” for the Negro traveler. That was a pretty low number considering Georgia had 17…Tennessee had a whopping 66. Even Mississippi had 38 locations listed.[14]A.G. Gaston Motel Partnership: The City of Birmingham and the National Park Service (U.S. National Park Service)Later added to the list was the restaurant at Birmingham’s A.G. Gaston Motel. Built in the 1950’s, it later became known as the place Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. would stay as he held strategy sessions around the civil rights movement in that city.[15]Another of Green’s innovations laid the foundation for modern residential lodging networks; like Airbnb, his guide listed private residences where black travelers could stay safely.[16]In 1954, it suggested that visitors to tiny Roswell, New Mexico, should stay at the home of a Mrs. Mary Collins.[17] Indeed, it was an honor to have one’s home listed as a rooming house in the Green-Book, though the listings themselves were minimalist: “ANDALUSIA (Alabama) TOURIST HOMES: Mrs. Ed. Andrews, 69 N. Cotton Street.”[18] In 1956, travelers to Hartford, CT, could stay at Mrs. Johnson’s house at 2016 Main St.[19]The Green-Book was indispensable to black-owned businesses. For historians, the listings offer a record of the rise of the black middle class, and in particular, of the entrepreneurship of black women.The Remarkable Black Businesswomen Who Found Success in Segregated AmericaAt the helm of the Green Book during its apogee was Alma Duke Green.. The widow of Victor Hugo Green (the couple married in 1917 and remained childless), Alma continued to publish the guide, with assistance of an all-female editorial staff.[20] Alma’s personal experiences with Jim Crow and the hazards of travel went even deeper, however. Whereas Victor was born in New York and had lived nearly all his life in either New York or New Jersey,[21] Alma was born in Richmond on June 9, 1889. She was an early participant in the Great Migration, joining approximately 1.6 million African Americans in the first wave of the movement, which lasted from 1910 to 1940.[22] As a result of these experiences, Alma knew fully and personally how the Jim Crow laws of the American South affected those who lived under their yoke, as well as what traveling to and from the North entailed in the early 1900s.1956 opening of Esso Gas Station (1956-photo-of-the-grand-opening-of-Esso-gas-station-Memphis-Tennessee_fig3_286124463/amp)In 1952, Green retired from the postal service to become a full-time publisher. Subscriptions to the guide sold for 25 cents an issue ( the final issue cost $1) and continued to be published for 7 years after Green's death.[23] At the height of its circulation, Green printed 20,000 books annually.[24] Distributed mostly through mail order, AAA also offered Green's guidebook, as did black churches, the Negro Urban League and Esso gasoline stations (due in part to subsidies between Standard Oil and Esso)[25] . Esso not only served black customers, but the company also willingly franchised to blacks, unlike most franchisers of the day.[26]Writing in the 1948 edition, Green predicted:“There will be a day in the near future when this guide will not have to be published. That is when we as a race will have equal opportunities and privileges in the United States.”[27]Victor Green died in 1960, four years before Congress passed the Civil Rights Act making segregation illegal[28] and rendering the Green Book unnecessary. Until then it was essential, with a circulation of two million by 1962.[29]Final Edition (The Negro Motorist Green Book - Wikipedia)The Green-Book's final edition, in 1966-67, filled 99 pages and embraced the entire nation and even some international cities.[30] The guide pointed black travelers to places including hotels, restaurants, beauty parlors, nightclubs, golf courses and state parks.Green’s lasting influence was showing the way for the next generation of black entrepreneurs. Asking people to open their homes to unfamiliar travellers was a radical concept. Some charged a little, but many charged nothing.Footnotes[1] The Green Book: The First Travel Guide for African-Americans Dates to the 1930s[2] https://www.nalc.org/news/the-postal-record/2013/september-2013/document/09-2013_green-book.pdf[3] Sundown Towns by James W.

California offers concealed carry permits (contrary to popular belief). It is incredibly difficult to attain one in some counties, downright impossible and others, and quite easy in many.You are limited to only the handguns listed on your permit. Those handguns are listed by make, model, caliber, and serial number. While the typical CCW only has slots for three handguns, many sheriffs have taken to simply printing more guns on the backs.Your sheriff or other issuing authority (some police chiefs issue CCWs) is really the person who will decide what guns will be listed. Some issues:They all require that the gun be registered to you, but most (all?) will allow you to include any guns registered to your spouse as well.Some will not allow you to include guns that they’ve decided cannot be concealed. As an example, one of the sheriffs in my area decided that a really big revolver (I think a .500 S&W) was just too large. The prospective applicant claimed that he was going to use it as a truck gun, but that wasn’t good enough for the deputy because… reasons.They may not allow you to choose a particular gun because of rather strange reasons. As an example, I tried to list a 2″ Rhino and a 4″ Rhino. The deputy told me that I had to “choose.” Why? “They’re the same gun.” No, I explained, one is a snubby model that I carry on hot days. “Choose.” So I went with the snubby model. A few months later, when my permit was due for renewal, I went in and had both guns added.I would suggest that you are unlikely to get an AR pistol added to your CCW. It has been done, but only in very pro-CCW counties.Be aware that any issuing authority can decide really anything they want. They don’t have to let you have a permit at all. Some sheriffs will limit you to whatever is currently on the handgun roster, but that is completely at their discretion. Some will limit you to guns that have been on the roster. Half of the guns on my permit were never on the roster, and my sheriff didn’t so much as bat an eye as he added them.
