On Tuesday (April 6), the city of Los Angeles and the Getty Conservation Institute announced their plan to preserve Black history in the city. The African American Historic Places Project will be a three-year program to locate and formally preserve landmarks significant to Black history and culture.
Los Angeles Times said that the project will work out of the city’s Office of Historic Resources within the Department of City Planning. The initiative’s goal is to have a more accurate reflection of LA’s history and heritage. Right now, only about three percent of landmarks are linked to Black history.
