| "Surveying historical segregation in the District of Columbia, Past Present: DC posits the idea that we are as segregated today as yesterday. We are separated by the same fears, hat, ignorance, and silence. As the nation's capital and as an American city, D.C. is layered with sites of humiliation, trauma, and racial violence that do not need to be within the city's physical borders to become part of the urban grid and psyche. Conveyors of information, outrage, and sentiment within African American communities across the nation." Tia Blassingame (from the colophon) The book was produced in an edition of 3 copies.
