Learn about singer Fulton Fryar and race relations in New York State in the 1950s.

A small room that's now part of a new exhibit in Blue Mountain Lake was built to house the first African American singer, Fulton Fryar, in an Adirondack summer music program. It serves as a somber reminder of race relations in New York State, during the 1950s. As Paul Larson of Mountain Lake PBS reports, friends of Seagle Colony worked to preserve the structure when it was condemned last year.
