“Recapturing Black Beaches: A Shared Story Project” is an oral history initiative of the Zwaanendael Museum, designed to memorialize and uplift stories of what it has been like to recreate at Delaware’s beaches as a person of color throughout history. The stories will be used for educational purposes and use will be determined by permissions granted by participants.
