Visiting Greensboro
As one of the most popular university cities on the southern East Coast, there is never a dull moment in Greensboro. This lively and creative city thrives on art, sports, and its sensational social scene. Although Greensboro is a small US city, it played a big part in gaining independence for US citizens of all backgrounds. Not only was it where the sit-in protests began in 1960 that surged the Civil Rights Movement, it was where the Battle of Guilford Courthouse took place, which ignited the American Revolution campaign. Today you can visit the very sites where these pivotal moments in American history took place, and learn more about the city’s Native American, Quaker, African-American, and Scottish and Irish heritage at the Greensboro Historical Museum.
