From a Black Perspective

"W. W. Law said the tour and other projects sponsored by the organization 'kind of grew out of an experience of seeing many Negro landmarks disappear.'The association's goal is to 'preserve and protect the last remaining sites' of historical significance." 
Washington Post, May 1979.
