Boston Series: Dudley Sq.

Saturday, February 19, 2011



Once a central location for Roxbury commerce, Dudley Square became the epicenter of the Black community in the 1950's and 1960's. Today Boston residents have become the driving force behind the revitalization and preservation of this historic landmark.
