Check out this great website from DC Historic Preservation Office / DC Office of Planning:
“With their longtime presence even before the establishment of a city, African Americans have been central to the culture, heritage and civic life of Washington, DC. This website records nearly 300 places associated with African American history and culture in the District of Columbia. These sites span the city’s history from its creation in 1791, through the Civil War and Civil Rights eras to 1974—when DC gained Home Rule—and beyond. (more…)

“Dear PoPville,
Hopefully many of you are familiar with the Rosemount Center in Mount Pleasant in NW DC. Rosemount provides early childhood education and family support services to pregnant women, infants, toddlers, and preschool-aged children and their families in its center-based and home-based programs. Since 1972, Rosemount has served many thousands of DC children and their families. Focused on helping DC’s neediest residents, Rosemount received its first Head Start grant in 1986 and its first Early Head Start grant in 1996.
This past Friday evening, Rosemount teachers (and then the larger Rosemount community) were notified that Rosemount’s landlord, the House of Mercy (HOM), has terminated their building lease as of August 2024. This is devastating for DC children and families, as early childhood education is at a premium in DC and the Rosemount Center is a model HeadStart school. (more…)
