Joe McGill, an officer with the National Trust for Historic Preservation, has embarked on a personal crusade to bring attention to the preservation of slave cabins throughout the United States.  McGill is in his second year of traveling around the United States and spending the night in slave cabins in an effort to bring attention to preserving these often neglected pieces of African American history.
