List_of_artworks_commemorating_African_Americans_in_Washington,_D.C.
Artworks commemorating African-Americans in Washington, D.C. is a group of fourteen public artworks in Washington, D.C., including the Martin Luther King, Jr. Memorial dedicated in 2011, that commemorate African Americans.[1] When describing thirteen of these that predate the King Memorial, Jacqueline Trescott wrote for The Washington Post:
In a city crowded with memorials and monuments, few represent the individual struggles of African American pioneers or salute the contributions of black citizens.[1]
Trescott reported that four additional commemorative works also include representations of African Americans.[1]
