As she shares their stories and those of their friends, neighbors, and business associates, she illuminates the wider history of African-American elites in New York City.<\/p>\n<p>During her current MITH faculty fellowship, Peterson is creating the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.blackgothamarchive.org\/\">Black Gotham Digital Archive<\/a>, a dynamic website based upon her book. The site chronicles the visual and textual history of Lower Manhattan and Brooklyn, and links this information to interactive maps in order to create a deeper understanding of nineteenth-century black New Yorkers.
