INDIANAPOLIS — The Madam C.J. Walker Legacy Center and Indiana Avenue are vital pieces of Indianapolis' Black history. The city immortalized Walker by naming the street in front of the complex in her honor.
A'Lelia Bundles, Walker's great-great-granddaughter, unveiled the sign in a ceremony outside of the Walker Center. "I go back to the 1960s," said Eric Durrett, a musician who grew up nearby."I remember my father used to take me to some of the clubs when he wasn't supposed to."
