Thank you for this exhibit and presentation of this wonderful book by Mrs Mills and Mrs. Buck . I wish I had known, as the Historian of the African American Community since 1997 and President of the Witherspoon-Jackson Historican and Cultural Society, I could have added artifacts and history of African Americans in Princeton and information as one who grew up in a segregated Princeton and a student of the Princeton Plan.
