Abstract:

North Carolina has rich African American history, but only after the Civil Rights Movement did local and state monuments begin to publicly commemorate this history. Architectural historian, Catherine Bishir, identifies many important African American monuments in the state and explains that the time-period during which they were constructed can tell us much about the state's past.
