Editorial Review:
Since the Civil War, African Americans have broken down barriers of race and class and permeated nearly every sphere of influence in Washington, D.C. From the kitchen galleys of the U.S. Capitol to the upper echelons of the Executive Office, the contributions made by African Americans are a critical part of the history, culture, andinfrastructure of the District of Columbia.

- Disappointing read
This book includes dozens of pages of unknown and un-named African Americans taken from photo albumns that may or may not be from DC, and OMITS dozens and even hundreds of important black figures in Washington's history. How the Arcadia editors allowed this to happen is beyond me.
