Deeds mapped: 600

Instagram

Excited to announce that today we signed a Memorandum of Understanding with our 4th cohort of super amazing students at UVA’s school of architecture to help Mapping Cville continue to log and map Charlottesville and Albemarle County’s history of infrastructure investment and neglect.
By 1940, more than 600 deeds in Charlottesville’s neighborhoods had racist covenants in them, preventing Black residents from living there.
Last year @cvillejeffschool received support from the National Trust for Historic Preservation’s @savingplaces to help tell the stories and history of Black property in Charlottesville and Albemarle County.
TIL: In the 1920s-30s, the U.S. passed a series of racist licensure requirements for barbers, aimed at putting Black barbershops out of business.
