Can I keep it real with y’all?

The South Side’s history deserves to be remembered.

Not erased. Not forgotten.

The Major Taylor Trail is more than a trail—it’s a living reminder of the people, families, and generations that built this community.

We’re committed to keeping that story alive through our trail, our youth, and the work we do every day.

If you believe our history is worth preserving, we’d love your support.

A share is free. Donations are always welcome. All links are in our bio.
