Today @AntiochCAgov recognizes Thomas Gaines Day &, as part of #BlackHistoryMonth we are highlighting his story. An emancipated slave who came to Antioch & worked as a laborer at the docks, Gaines was the city's first & only African American resident from the 1860s to the 1940s. https://t.co/CUqIXLDRfS — PolitiTweet.org
