Second Sunday Stroll of Hollywood-Rose Hill

This tour meets at Hollywood Park, the 200 block of South Gregg Street.

Join HCF for a guided walking tour of the Hollywood-Rose Hill neighborhood at 2 pm on Sunday, June 9. The Hollywood-Rose Hill neighborhood is bordered by Heyward and Harden Streets, Rosewood Drive, and the University of South Carolina's athletic fields, located off South Marion Streets. Designed to be separate communities, Rose Hill and Hollywood were established in 1914 and 1921. Characterized by a common architectural form - the bungalow - many of Rose Hill's houses were constructed from Aladdin Company kits. Meanwhile, Hollywood generally featured a variety of larger, architect-designed residences. Rose Hill and Hollywood were annexed with other southeast Columbia suburbs in 1926 and 1927. Despite their physical differences, these two neighborhoods today often are perceived as a single community. Second Sunday Strolls provide a guided tour for many of the neighborhoods featured in Historic Columbia Foundation's Retrace (Connecting Communities Through History) brochures. Tours are 30 - 60 minutes in length. Cost: Free for HCF members | $6 adults | $3 youth. Reservations requested. Walk ups welcome if space permits. To RSVP please call 803.252.1770, ext. 24 or email reservations@historiccolumbia.org.

CIVIL RIGHTS SUNDAYS: Before Rosa: The Unsung Contributions of Sarah Mae Flemming

Richland Library, 1431 Assembly St. Columbia, SC

Seventeen months before Rosa Parks refused to surrender her seat on an Alabama bus in 1955, a little-known Civil Rights heroine named Sara Mae Flemming refused to obey a similar ordinance on a bus in Columbia, S.C. Flemming’s story has largely faded from the public’s memory. “Before Rosa” tells of Flemming’s experience with an angry bus driver and her struggle to get her lawsuit against the bus company to court. Eventually, the U.S. Fourth Circuit Court of Appeals ruled that segregated seating in Flemming’s case was unconstitutional. The ruling became a precedent that played an important role later in the Parks case. Filmmaker Steve Crump is a news reporter in Charlotte, NC and produces black history documentaries as an independent producer for WTVI-TV, the PBS affiliate in Charlotte. Talkback with Producer Steve Crump. COST: Free.
