On August 20, 1998, the Interfaith Pilgrimage stopped through Charlotte as part of their journey from Boston to West Africa. The Pilgrims re-traced the Middle Passage slave trade routes as they prayed for racial healing and atonement for past institution of Slavery in the United States, South America, and Europe. While in Charlotte, the Pilgrims took a customized Black Heritage Toursm of Charlotte and Mecklenburg County. Among the sites visited by the Pilgrims was a former Slave church and three existing Slave cemeteries. Each year, Queen City Tours® and Travel invites you to experience the re-creation of this special Charlotte Black Heritage Toursm and Pilgrimage as individuals during the months of February - Black History Month, and June - Juneteenth.
Visit three existing Slave cemeteries, a former Slave church, and over 50 other sites of Charlotte Black/African-American history on this tour. Tours are scheduled daily in February - Black History Month, and June - Juneteenth - at 10:00 AM and 1:30 PM. Each tour lasts three hours and departs from the 7th Street Public Market in Uptown Charlotte located at 224 East 7th Street, next to the Lynx Blue Line Light Rail Station. Catch the Light Rail from one of their FREE parking lots south and north of Uptown/Downtown/Center City and SAVE!

This event supports the Pilgrimage Scholarship established in 2008 in honor of the late Pastor Jeff Lowrance of Hopewell Presbyterian Church and Civil Rights Hero Dr. Reginald Armistice Hawkins. Each year a college student studying or preparing to study African-American history is awarded this scholarship and must maintain at least a 3.0 GPA.
