A. Maceo Smith Historical Website

Faculty Member: Dr. Kimberly Hill

Harry W. Bass Jr. School of Arts, Humanities, and Technology

The Working Group collaborated to create a multi-page website on the archival collection of Dallas civil rights leader A. Maceo Smith. Hosted by the African American Museum of Dallas, the virtual exhibit showcases Smith’s life. The group enhanced historical details provided by Brenda Lakhani, a UTD Ph.D. student, determining optimal formatting and visual aids. This joint effort provided students with the opportunity to develop skills in web design, copy editing, media analysis, and organization. Through the process, they gained valuable professional experience by incorporating feedback from faculty, museum staff, and community members of various ages.
