Underground History: Exploring Erased Histories in the Tampa Bay Region

If a community fully acknowledges its past, can it develop a deeper sense of place and a more equitable future? Underground History explores the diverse histories of Tampa Bay and St. Petersburg, from the archaeological remnants of ancient Indigenous villages to settlements of freedom-seeking people, Cuban fishing ranchos, displaced African-American communities, and erased cemeteries. Each story reveals a layer of history and the connections between them.
