Locating, honoring, restoring and protecting important sites in Indiana's African-American history is one task of Indiana Landmarks. Journalist, historian, newspaper editor, Eunice Trotter, is director of the organization's Black Heritage Preservation Program. This conversation includes references to many historical sites. For example, Indianapolis' Douglas Park was the only park blacks could experience. A Church in Marion for use by Quakers was designed by a black architect and now could be demolished. These are just two of many important references.
