by Alum /Author Joycelyn Coleman
Morning tour of the Oak Bluffs section of the African American Heritage Trail. That would be scheduled for 10 am and we could end the tour at Ms Jocelyn Coleman’s house (Morgan Class of ‘67) which is a site on the Trail. If your group is staying in Oak Bluffs then it would make sense for us to end the tour at Ms. Jocelyn so that she could do her presentation and share her story of being a member of the Coleman family. If however, your group would need transport after Ms Jocelyn’s presentation we can do that too. Meet at Oak Bluffs Ferry; end at Jocelyn Coleman’s House- 11 Myrtle, OB. The cost for the Oak Bluffs tour which lasts one and a half hours is $40 per person

Oak Bluffs on Martha’s Vineyard, part of Massachusetts’ Cape Cod Islands, is one of several historic African American summer resort communities along the Atlantic seaboard founded in the 1890s. The “Inkwell” or Town Beach in Oak Bluffs is the name of the popular beach frequented by African Americans beginning in the late nineteenth century. The strand was pejoratively called “The Inkwell” by nearby whites in reference to the skin color of the beach-goers. It is the most famous of beaches across the U.S. to transform this odious nickname.
