forty seven years ago Ralph Gibson liked one of my pictureskind words.I was living near McCoy in a 10×32, Prices Fork Road. Had a darkroom and an Omega B-22 enlarger.
For I have known them all already, known them all:
Have known the evenings, mornings, afternoons,
I have measured out my life with coffee spoons;
I know the voices dying with a dying fall
Beneath the music from a farther room.
So how should I presume? T.S.Eliot
The African American Civil War Memorial, dedicated under the leadership of Dr. Frank Smith Jr. and Colin Powell, serves as tribute to the United States Colored Troops (USCT). The wall lists the names of 209,145 USCT who fought for freedom during the American Civil War. The memorial is located at the corner of Vermont Avenue, 10th St and U St NW.
