This Juneteenth, Willamette Heritage Center is partnering with Oregon Black Pioneers and Just Walk Salem Keizer for the fourth annual In Freedom’s Footsteps community history walk.
The walk shares the story of William P. Johnson and Elizabeth Walker Johnson and visits places connected to their lives and contributions to Salem’s early Black community.
It’s free, with guided and self-guided options available on June 19.
We appreciate opportunities like this to learn more about the people and stories that shaped Salem.
