Source catalog description

This description refers to material held by Smithsonian National Museum of African American History and Culture. Visual details below describe the original material.

A digital aerial photograph depicting a meander along a section of the Combahee River. The river appears deep blue against the surrounding light brown flatlands. Remnant dikes and canals make patters in the grass, while a tree-lined canal follows the river’s flow, creating an outline in the grass. To the far left, the Harriet Tubman Bridge rises above the river, supported by several beams underneath it.
