Additional Information and Source Material

We wish to acknowledge local and regional efforts that preceded or are actively underway at local and regional levels to document sites related to African American history. Many of these efforts far surpass the objectives of the Winding River African American History Project and often provide a more indepth review of African American historic sites in their particular area.
