Carla Dartis, MSC's Executive Director, beautifully captures the essence of the Historic Clayborn Temple, describing it as "a living archive, a tangible reminder of the struggles and sacrifices that have shaped our collective journey toward justice." This powerful statement underscores the temple's role not just as a historical site, but as a source of inspiration and learning for all of us committed to equity and mutual understanding. The stories held within the temple's walls offer a profound look back at the challenges faced by those who came before us, while also highlighting their unyielding determination for a fairer world. It stands as a guiding light for our shared ambition to foster a society where inclusivity and justice prevail. ?? Delve deeper into the Clayborn Temple's pivotal role in our history and its enduring influence on our present and future. Read our feature here: https://lnkd.in/gXGj2kQB ??

Happy Wednesday!! ?? It's NATIONAL PRESERVATION MONTH! Author | C. Knighten National Preservation Month, also known as Historic Preservation Month is celebrated during the month of May to remind us about our Nation's heritage. Pervserving our historic buildings and homes is very important to our Nation and communities. Across our country, organizations promote various activities within our communities on the local, state and National levels. Preserving these places helps us to remember our History and the stories associated with each. Understanding our history is the key to improving our future. Without our history (ies) we might forget the lessons we have learned and should never repeat. Whether the story is found in your local library or your grandmother's attic, peeling back the layers of time?? helps us understand the past. Keeping these stories alive helps us provide a rich and textured history of the people who worked and lived there. Our imaginations can then begin to understand their hardships, what they overcame, and the difficult decisions they made in the face of adversity. HOW TO CELEBRATE NATIONAL PRESERVATION MONTH: ?? Research your community! From the Morgan County Historical Society to the Morgan County Landmarks Socieity, there are several resources to help you start your journey! Learn about ??

Our first project last year that got Community Planning Collaborative going. I absolutely loved working on this project, as historic research is one of my most favorite things to do. One of my goals for this year is to get the word our more about this project, and the great work the Florida Chitlin' Circuit Group is doing. The Group is a collective of several Florida Main Street communities working together to document and highlight their Chitlin' Circuit heritage as a means of historic preservation and economic vitality. Research from this project has identified that the Chitlin’ Circuit existed in large part because of what has been identified as “the stroll,” a term coined by musician Walter Barnes in the 1930s to describe commercial and entertainment areas in Black neighborhoods across the country. Florida Main Streets in Black communities are historic evidence of the stroll. These districts, with dance halls, bars, juke joints, and clubs, provided the backbone in which the Chitlin’ Circuit thrived. The Chitlin' Circuit can't be separated from the larger environmental context of neighborhoods and communities. We hope this information will help inform historic preservation efforts, as well as urban planning efforts. I've had two interactions with fellow experienced planners recently that had limited to no knowledge of the history of Black commercial districts and how that played a role in neighborhood history, culture and development. We hope research like this will be of aid.

Here is my latest magazine issue:

Hello everybody.?I want to direct your attention to an excellent book.?It’s called Charleston: Race, Water, and the Coming Storm by Susan Crawford (@SusanCrawford).?This book is not only a meticulously researched and annotated history of the racist marginalization of the black community in Charleston but it is also a warning shot over the bow for all coastal cities of the world.?How many of us have visited Charleston, rated by Travel and Leisure as the number one city in the country 11 years in a row, and not been charmed by the restaurants on East Bay Street??Beneath this genteel veneer, however, lies a dark history and a simmering time bomb of increased flooding.?Not content to simply write from home, Crawford supplements her deep dive into archival books, maps, and articles, by conducting dozens of interviews with people from all walks of life in Charleston as well as leading climate change experts. ?What she uncovers is not pretty.?Time and time again, she documents the displacement of the African American community into the most flood-prone areas of the lower peninsula.?Time and time again, whenever black owned lands are valued by the powers that be levers are moved to displace them and build expensive neighborhoods in their place.?However, nature will have the final word as even these communities will eventually be abandoned in the face of inexorable sea level rise.?This unflinching interrogation of Charleston’s past is also a harbinger of things to come for all coastal cities of the world.?As the seas rise, and they will, tough choices will have to be made.?Can they be made with fairness, with justice, with equity, with dignity??This book helps us understand mistakes of the past and hopefully, if we’re smart, arm us with the wisdom for a more just and sustainable coastal future. #SusanCrawford #SeaLevelRise
