I strongly recommend any of the United Street Tours for Nashvillians and guests. I think that I have taken all but one. I love the "beta" tours on women in the civil rights movement.

This tour was exceptional! Our guide, Chakita Patterson, was up-beat, energetic, and knowledgeable. She talked about little-known facts and expounded on others, while revealing the controversies that accompanied them. Being a native Nashvillian, I was interested to know what would/could be revealed to me; I was not disappointed. While this is my first time touring with United Street Tours, I would highly recommend this tour, and frankly any of the others being offered by this company.

A must experience for any history buff looking to learn about stories that are many times left out of the history books and off plaques. We need more diverse stories to get the complete picture of our nation’s history. This is cutting edge inclusion work and fun!!

I have lived here for more than twenty years and learned so much in this one hour tour. The guides are knowledgeable, interactive, and passionate about our history.

The Slavery to Freedom Walking Tour boldly embodies what it means to live in an equitable-free society without love, empathy, or compassion. And a roadmap on how to challenge that. February 1960, marked a time when a bold group of students from the city’s four black colleges, American Baptist, Fisk University, Meharry Medical College, and Tennessee State University, confront racism at lunch counters, movie theaters, and other places in Nashville and beyond.
