African American Cultural Context Statement
African American Cultural Context Statement
A cultural context statement is a narrative that provides the framework for evaluating properties for historic significance. It includes information based on cultural themes which describe broad patterns of community and identifies specific resource types such as buildings, structures, sites, objects and/or districts that represent those patterns of development.
The San Antonio African American Context Statement provides a groundwork for identifying and evaluating properties relating to African American history in San Antonio. It is not intended to be a comprehensive history of the African American community. It presumes that it is not complete and should be updated on a periodic basis.
