African American Historic Preservation

African American Historic Preservation involves safeguarding and promoting sites, buildings, and landmarks significant to Black history and culture. It aims to recognize the contributions and experiences of African Americans, often highlighting places associated with civil rights, entrepreneurship, art, and community life. Preservation efforts help educate the public, foster understanding, and ensure that these important stories are remembered and celebrated for future generations. This work also addresses historical neglect by restoring and maintaining these sites, contributing to a richer, more inclusive historical narrative.
