Davis Bottom: Rare History, Valuable Lives

"Davis Bottom: Rare History, Valuable Lives" reveals the fascinating history of a working-class neighborhood established in Lexington after the Civil War. Davis Bottom is one of about a dozen ethnic enclaves settled primarily by African-American families who migrated to Lexington from the 1860s to the 1890s in search of jobs, security and opportunity.

The series is distributed by Kentucky Educational Television (KET) to viewers, teachers and students throughout the state.
