Join historian Frank M White on this fascinating journey through the early years of St. Paul's Rondo neighborhood. From the beginning, Rondo was a haven for people of color and immigrants. Learn of the neighborhood's immigrant namesake who faced discrimination due to his wife’s mixed white and indigenous heritage. French Canadians, German, Russian, Irish, and Jewish families all followed his lead in the late 19th century and found homes there.
Beginning in the 1910s and 1920s, Rondo experienced a social and cultural boom. Music and theater flourished. African American newspapers such as the Appeal, the Northwestern Bulletin, and the St. Paul Recorder represented Rondo’s interests and needs. In 1913, St. Paul established its chapter of the NAACP, making it a center for civil rights activity. One member of the chapter, Rondo resident Roy Wilkins, later led the national NAACP.
Frank grew up in Rondo. He will share stories from his extensive research as well as personal stories living in the neighborhood.

I'm extremely proud for the success of my first book, "They Played for the Love of the Game, Untold Stories of Black Baseball in Minnesota." Because it uncovers some under-represented history of some outstanding baseball players, that happened to be African American.
Currently working on #2, "The Spirit of the Rondo Athlete, 1940-1969." A listing of male and female athletes from the Rondo neighborhood of Saint Paul, and the sports they played.I'm also working on my overall Black History Project, Increasing awareness of Who's, who!Currrently I've been involved with increasing awareness of African Americans like Dred & Harriett Scott (Bloomington, MN), Jimmy Lee, Toni Stone, Ernie "Duke" Greene, Billy Williams, Samuel Stephens, and next Clarence "Cap" Wigington.this project is important to me because it's increasing awareness of significant African Americans and their contributions to Saint Paul and MInnesota..
