Chancellor Broski,

Chicago's Maxwell Street district is of paramount importance to the history of the blues (the backbone of American music) and to African-American culture and history in the city of Chicago. I would like to voice my support for the development of a Maxwell Street Historical Preservation District, to be incorporated into the University of Illinois' plans for the commercial redevelopment of the Maxwell Street area.

Respectfully,

David Nelson, Editor, Living Blues Magazine, Center for the Study of Southern Culture, The University of Mississippi, University, MS 38677
