Robert was a prominent attorney and the first African American to serve on the D.C. Superior Court. He was also the first African American to be appointed to the Board of Education in Washington D.C. and the first African American commissioner of the District of Columbia. Mary Church Terrell was a distinguished civil rights and suffrage leader, and served as the first president of the National Association of Colored Women.

The Hagerty Drivers Foundation is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization dedicated to protecting, preserving, and celebrating automotive heritage at its highest levels.

We believe that cars are an important part of our history and culture. Loved by millions, enthusiast vehicles and the lifestyle that revolves around them are an important part of our cultural fabric as a society and provide significant economic impact.

We envision a future where all vehicles regardless of age, power source or mode of operation coexist on public roadways.

The Foundation organizes the annual 'Cars at the Capital on the Mall. This year's event ran from August 31 to September 11, 2023, featuring a 1952 Porsche shown Above and a 1937 Cord 812 Convertible Phaeton Sedan – Chassis No. 1714 (owned by Amelia Earhart less than a year before she, her navigator, and her Lockheed 10E Electra disappeared over the South Pacific in 1937).

Sharing America’s automotive heritage is an integral part of ensuring it is never lost or forgotten. Through the Foundation's annual Cars at the Capital exhibition, vehicles added to the National Historic Vehicle Register are exhibited in a beautifully lit glass enclosure one at a time.
