About This Site

Black Belt Brooklyn was created with the support of (and in collaboration with) The African American History, Culture, and Digital Humanities Initiative at the University of Maryland-College Park. Special thanks to Kola Heyward-Rotimi, Andrew Smith, Christin Washington, Dr. Aleia Brown, and Dr. Marisa Parham. And much gratitude to my research assistant, Courtney Bell.

Additional project development was supported by the Fenwick Fellowship and a Center for Humanities Research Summer Faculty Research Grant at George Mason University. Thank you to Alyssa Toby Fahringer and Jack Tieszen at Fenwick Library. Special thanks to my research assistant, Mark Edwin Peterson.
