Description: "From the eighteenth century, African Americans, like many others, have migrated to California to seek fortunes or, often, to pursue the more modest goals of finding work, owning a home, and raising a family relatively free of discrimination. Their search and its outcome is the concern of Seeking of El Dorado."
