The construction of the National Museum of African American History and Culture is an extension of the life and legacy of Martin Luther King, Jr. Duke University’s 2017 Martin Luther King Commemoration Committee is guided by the understanding that modern architecture stands at the intersection of activism, human rights, and inclusion.

Downloaded by [New York University] at 06:56 16 August 2016 “J. Michael Welton’s Drawing from Practice is a fantastic book that sheds light on the creative process of how architects envision and bring their buildings to life. At a time when so much is lost to mechanization, Welton’s book reinforces the fact that nothing is as powerful and engaging as the art of the hand, especially in architecture.
