Description ▲

In 1954, the landmark Brown vs. Board of Education decision called for the desegregation of schools throughout the United States. The full effects of this decision were not known in Prince George's County for another 20 years, yet new economic opportunities and an attractive lifestyle kept the population, education level, and median income on the rise.In Black America: Prince George's County, the unique story of a diverse area once situated between the ideals of the nation and the traditions of the South is told through vintage photographs.
