This project is curated by Dr. E. James West. It was born out of a Leverhulme Trust project which focused on the Black press and the built environment in Chicago.
Building the Black Press expands this research beyond Chicago to explore the building history of the Black press throughout the United States. It includes photo-essays, interactive maps, and a range of other resources. Please use the form on the right to get in touch, or feel free to explore the different sections of the site listed below |
