A rich source of African American history. Great resource for teachers, especially high school and beyond. If I were still teaching, I’d use some as extra assignments. Enjoy reading and looking at the pictures. Appreciate the work put into this. Thank you. Keep up the excellent work you do.
I think your posts are amazing. They are way too long for me to read but as I have said before, they constitute a valuable archive and it's great you are doing them. Keep up the good work!

It’s mostly pictures which is good for folks who don’t want to read a lot. I understand.
I read so much, which is the problem - and I don't want to look at the photos without reading what you write. Very valuable.
