Lifting As We Climb
The Tacoma Colored Women’s Club is seeking to preserve and transform the historic home of Tacoma’s prominent black civil rights activist, Nettie Asberry. The house, in the heart of Tacoma’s Hilltop district, will be used as a community center to build upon and provide a cultural home for the black population of Tacoma.
