Both Martin Luther King, Jr., and President Lyndon Johnson visited this ordinary home to seek advice from the extraordinary civil-rights activist Juanita Craft (1902-1985). Craft, a dressmaker, joined the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP) in 1935. By 1958 she had founded 182 rural chapters of the NAACP.
