Draft:Oregon Black Pioneers[edit]

Hello and welcome to Wikipedia! I was glad to see the draft of this article appear in the list WikiProject Oregon maintains to help us find new articles to add to the project. I'm a longtime editor and I see the article could use some editing that might help it pass AfC. Do you mind if I do some work on the draft? Valfontis (talk) 03:09, 4 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

I did some work on it, see what you think! I may add some more tomorrow. I have my copy of Perseverance here somewhere, that I got when Gwen gave a talk at the Congregational Church in Salem. I lived in Salem for 10 years. Cheers! Valfontis (talk) 05:37, 4 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]
