This Eunice Trotter sounds like quite the racist. Assuming that the historian who is not a person of color doesn’t have experience researching Black heritage. Should I assume that all black historians have no experience researching non-black history?
Mind your business.
Matthew B, sometimes it’s better to keep your mouth shut and just let people think you’re ignorant.
I think the point Trotter is making is making is that in this particular case, Black history has been completely overlooked once before and that it would be easy to gloss over it again. If there is some sensitivity here, then it is well justified.
I’m not ignorant at all. I’m tired of these types of discussions where it’s good for one side but not for the other. Do you all not see the disconnect and the irony? If there were a graveyard in a part of town containing people of Irish heritage, and the historian assigned were black, would it considered acceptable to say publicly “I don’t think having a person of color is appropriate. We really need someone who has experience researching Irish heritage.” ? This junk has to stop.
Matthew B.

It is absolutely rediculious to disqualify someone on this project because of
melanin. We’ve done that way to manytimes filling positions in our city.
It needs to stop.
That said, if graves are found, rebury them in Crown Hill.
But please get on with the bridge construction.
Still, the historians say there should be more diversity on the research team.
“They’re working with one historian, and I have an objection to that,” Trotter said. “That person is not a person of color. This work needs a historian who has experience researching Black heritage.”
Race issues aside. When did the rendering change? Originally this design had arches and some neat architectural features. Now it looks like “Indiana”.
Pat are you thinking of the bridge at 16 Tech?
No Amandula. I’m not confusing them. The original renderings were really awesome. Indy Eleven’s new stadium renderings also depicted the same arches and architecture as the original.
The 16 Tech bridge features are a whole different kind of sad.
There were actually three designs for the bridge for which the community gave input. The final design choice will be unveiled tonight at the Henry Street Bridge public meeting. The renderings that you have seen are based on those original 3 designs.
Great job on publishing the map with the “Colored Section” marked, IBJ!
This is not a current map. It is old.
It’s old because the original site got paved over, forgotten and ignored.
The map is a historical record. Not all history is peaches and roses. The inclusion of the historical map provides needed context to the subject of this article.
“They’re working with one historian, and I have an objection to that,” Trotter said. “That person is not a person of color. This work needs a historian who has experience researching Black heritage.”
The archeologist who will be referred to if remains are found is well versed in Black history on the west side of Indianapolis’ Downtown, and was hired by who might have been the biggest expert within academia on that specific topic.
