About this listen
Dr. Frances “Toni” Murphy Draper and artist Savannah Wood talk about the history of Baltimore’s AFRO American Newspaper and their family’s ownership of the paper that dates back five generations to 1892. Today, the AFRO holds more than three million photographs in its archive which it is seeking to make public in a new visitor center in the Upton neighborhood.
