Making sense of the present means knowing the past.
It also means honoring the legacy of Black history and celebrating culture.
This Black History Month, we're profiling Black trailblazers and community leaders in San Diego.
Yvette Porter Moore is a historian who studies genealogy and DNA research. For the past 20 years, she's been doing the work of piecing together San Diego’s Black History — one photo, one artifact and one DNA test at a time.
Her work will be featured in the "Missing Pieces Project" at the San Diego History Center, which will debut on Feb. 26.
