Program on early Black homesteaders tonight

The Glen Lake Library in Empire will host a screening of the documentary film “The Search for Anna & Levi” tonight at 6:30 p.m.

Produced by the Leelanau Historical Society, the film explores the lives of Anna and Levi Johnson, early Black homesteaders in what is now the Sleeping Bear Dunes National Lakeshore.

The film brings to light an overlooked chapter of Leelanau County’s history and the broader story of African American settlement in the Midwest.
