LaRoche CJ, Fletcher P, Hughes L, Spencer C. 2021. Thematic Framework for the History of Civil Rights in the National Capital Area. NPS Special History Study. National Park Service. Washington, DC
This document, “Thematic Framework for the History of Civil Rights in the National Capital Area, National Park Service,” is modeled partly on “Civil Rights in America: A Framework for Identifying Significant Sites,” completed by the National Historic Landmarks Program of the National Park Service in 2002, and revised in 2008. Each chapter includes a brief overview of civil rights themes for a particular era, followed by examples of events, people, and places related to civil rights in that era. The lists of events, people, and places are not comprehensive, but rather examples of the types of events, people, and places in the National Capital Area related to the history of civil rights. The bibliography and footnotes can guide the reader to find additional information.
