Selected neighbors and neighborhoods of North Saint Louis and selected related events
JoAnn Adams Smith (Author), Friends of Vaughn Cultural Center (Publisher)
"Our purpose is to give you, the reader, historical vistas and vignettes laced with portraits, past and contemporary ... Our text is divided into five categories of the black experience in St. Louis: businesses, churches and religions, signficant events, housing, and personalities ... The reader is challenged to examine the categories and make his or her own additions. We do indeed view this document as a tool for stimulating further inquiry ... Further, we hope that recounting the accomplishments of black St. Louis neighbors raises the level of self-esteem in the black community and raises the level of respect for black contributions in the broader community"--From Introduction, page 1
