A large crowd gathered Saturday at Ella Mae Shamblee Library in Fort Worth to preserve Black history through what they are calling a History Harvest.

History is meant to be remembered. That's why the National Juneteenth Museum and the University of North Texas libraries are working together to preserve a special part of it.

The National Juneteenth Museum and UNT Special Collections gathered a wide range of documents, pieces of history, and stories. These items were handled with white glove care and digitally scanned. They'll be available online through the UNT library and for future display by the museum.
