RLP 171: African American Resources

Today's episode of Research Like a Pro is about books that Diana has been reading to help her with African American Research. She discusses general reference books as well as locality specific references.There are an abundance of materials available to guide our research these days, and some of those materials are only available in printed books. It's great to take advantage of the writings of fellow genealogists and historians to help us along the way.
