#371/Conserving Black Modernism: Charles McAfee + Brent Leggs + Musical Guest Jaimee Paul
Manage episode 441353466 series 79847
Being a Black architect in the white-male-dominated 20th century was tough. You were paid less, worked harder, and rarely got any credit. That is, if you could get hired at all. For example, by 1950 there were only two Black architects registered in North Carolina, both male. By 1980 the number was only 65 out of 1909. Even by 1993, Black architects made up only 7.5% nationally. Today we’ll hear from Charles McAfee, considered by many to be the greatest living African-American architect. The National Trust for Historic Preservation, supported by the Getty Foundation in Los Angeles, is working to share and elevate the achievements of African-American architects, both men and women. We’ll talk with the director that program, Brent Leggs. Later on, great jazz with Jaimee Paul.
