life.style: Black Celebration - 19, 20 & 21 of 28


"If I allow the fact that I am a Negro to checkmate my will to do, now, I will inevitably form the habit of being defeated."


Paul Revere Williams
First African American member of the American Institute of Architects (AIA), and  first African American to be voted an AIA Fellow
I am writing this celebratory post today with Max in mind. With his strong appreciation for architecture and design, I felt it appropriate to look deeper into the role of African Americans in commercial and public design/development. Though severely underrepresented, there are a number of very talented and accomplished black architects who have made amazing contributions to the design world.
