Underground History explores the diverse histories of Tampa Bay and St. Petersburg, from the archeological remnants of ancient Indigenous villages to settlements of freedom-seeking people, Cuban fishing ranchos, displaced African American communities, and erased cemeteries. Each story reveals a layer of history and how they are connected. Underground History poses the question, if a community fully acknowledge its past, can it develop a deeper sense of place and a more equitable future?
