MORE THEATERS

Remembering what used to be area theaters'' (Daily Break, March 15) should have been titled ``Remembering what used to be area theaters for caucasians only,'' since staff writer Earl Swift failed to mention all of our theaters.

There were a few theaters available for African Americans; namely the Dunbar, Lenox, Carver, Regal, Booker T., Manhattan, Gem and Moton (made available to African Americans when Caucasians moved out of the area).
