This engaging resource contains information about 800 black historic sites in 42 states, Puerto Rico, and the Virgin Islands. Often, they are places where people lived, such as the Paul Laurence Dunbar House in Dayton, Ohio; or the Blanche K. Bruce house in Washington, D.C., home of the second black man who served in the U.S. Senate. But there are also schools, hospitals, clubs, colleges, forts, cemeteries, and more. The listings (organized alphabetically by state), include brief descriptions and addresses, making this useful for those curious about black historic sites in their town or state or for anyone planning a vacation tour of historic sites.
Book Description
Compiled from the records of the National Register of Historic Places this lavishly illustrated book features over 800 locations in 42 states and two U.S. territories that have played a role in black American history. Banks, cemeteries, colleges, forts, homes, schools and shops are but a few of the types of sites explored. Features eight insightful articles on African American experience and study, from migration to the role of women, from the Harlem Renaissance to the Civil Rights Movement.
