After the Federal Fair Housing Act, my family moved to a SE neighborhood that prohibited farm animals and persons of African, Asian and Semitic descent. The color of the neighborhood changed rapidly. As if to thumb his nose at the former restrictive covenants, one neighbor purchased a llama. The passerby would stare in disbelief before jumping to dodge the wad of black mucus it snorted. I wish I had a photograph of that llama. Several elderly neighbors were particularly kind to the newcomers. After they died, I wished I had photographs of them. Anacostia and surrounding neighborhoods are experiencing tremendous change. Shopping areas, older houses and large apartment complexes have disappeared. Plywood and vinyl homes have replaced tiny stucco houses and sprawling brick complexes. Every time I see major renovations and new construction, I wish I photographed the old structures and people.
