Riassunto

Opened in 1907 in Shreveport, Louisiana, by Black dairy farmer Angus Bates, Lakeside Dairy was a rarity in the post-Reconstruction South. The dairy thrived despite the time’s racially oppressive and hostile social and political climate. While the dairy closed in 1943, Angus’s life and work legacy echoed through the Bates family for generations.
