Additional properties also authorized to be part of the nomination include: Robert Russa Moton High School/Museum, Farmville, Virginia; Monroe Elementary School, Topeka, Kansas (part of Brown v. Board of Education National Historical Park); Little Rock Central High School, Little Rock, Arkansas (Little Rock Central High School National Historic Site); Ebenezer Baptist Church (Heritage Sanctuary), Atlanta, Georgia (part of the Martin Luther King, Jr. National Historical Park); Greyhound Bus Terminal, Anniston, Alabama (part of Freedom Riders National Monument); Medgar and Myrlie Evers Home, Jackson, Mississippi (Medgar and Myrlie Evers Home National Monument); Lincoln Memorial and Grounds, Washington, District of Columbia (part of the National Mall and Memorial Parks); Edmund Pettus Bridge, Selma, Alabama, (part of Selma to Montgomery National Historical Trail). The U.S. Civil Rights Sites proposal was evaluated on a preliminary basis by the International Council on Monuments and Sites (ICOMOS) in 2023 which provided an assessment report. The assessment was based on a visit by international experts to most of the proposed properties and desk reviews by experts of materials developed by Georgia State University. When the Federal Interagency Panel met to consider the proposal it recommended authorization of a draft nomination with the stipulation that the ICOMOS recommendations on the selection of properties and other matters be sufficiently addressed as the nomination is developed. Only eight of the ten additional properties are currently eligible for nomination. Two additional properties in the Georgia State proposal are not included in the authorization at this time. The Lorraine Motel in Memphis, Tennessee and the Woolworth’s store in Greensboro, North Carolina are not currently National Historic Landmarks, but could be added to the nomination if they obtain the necessary designation of national significance. In the course of developing the nomination, a small number of additional properties could be added to respond to the ICOMOS recommendations. The U.S. Civil Rights Sites are the locations of iconic events in the mid20th century civil rights movement for African Americans in the United States of America. This movement both drew from and had a profound influence on human rights movements elsewhere in VerDate Sep<11>2014 16:47 Jul 17, 2024 Jkt 262001 the world, particularly insofar as they embody techniques of non-violent social change hitherto most powerfully expressed by Mahatma Gandhi. The current components in the draft nomination collectively played a preeminent role in the movement and will be nominated under criterion vi for association with events and ideas of outstanding universal value. Additional components will be considered for inclusion in keeping with the recommendations of ICOMOS. Next Steps A draft World Heritage nomination for U.S. Civil Rights Sites may now be prepared, in consultation with the National Park Service’s Office of International Affairs. The NPS will coordinate the review and evaluation of the draft nomination to ensure it meets the requirements of 36 CFR part 73 and will cooperate with the Georgia State University World Heritage Initiative, the property owners, and other partners. Following NPS review of a complete draft nomination, the Department may submit it to the World Heritage Centre for technical review by September 30 of any year. The Centre will then provide comments by November 15 of that year. The Federal Interagency Panel for World Heritage will review a draft nomination following receipt of the Centre’s comments and recommend to the Department whether the nomination should be formally submitted for consideration by the World Heritage Committee. Submittal to the World Heritage Centre by the Department through the Department of State can be made by February 1 of any year (prior to 2026, at which time a new procedure of the World Heritage Committee will take effect); the World Heritage Committee would then consider the nomination at its annual meeting in the summer of the following year, after an evaluation by ICOMOS, which is an official Advisory Body to the Committee.
