Inquirer front page: "Tuskegee legacy taxis into Temple"

To preserve their rich legacy and mark Black History Month, the Greater Philadelphia Chapter of Tuskegee Airmen Inc. on Thursday donated its archives of hundreds of papers, photographs and memorabilia to Temple's Charles L. Blockson Afro-American Collection. "The Blockson Collection houses all the important historical facts about the African-American community," said Eugene Richardson, 85. "The Tuskegee Airmen fit right in there. This is a permanent place for our archives." Diane Turner, curator of the collection, said: "For [The Philadelphia Chapter of the Tuskegee Airmen] to contact us and want to have their archives placed in the Blockson Collection for generations to come shows they have a sense of the importance of history."
