...“Centuries” celebrates the contributions of Black women to the sport of cycling and was inspired by the journey of five Black women who, in 1928, over the course of three days, cycled over 250 miles (two and a half centuries in cycling terms) from NYC to DC. They traversed hilly, rough, and dangerous roads through cold and stormy weather, but riding through the Jim Crow era presented an additional, more existential threat.
