The crash involving a single engine Piper PA-32 and a semi-tractor trailer truck was reported at about noon in the 2500 block of South Navy Way, according to the Los Angeles Fire Department. The impact of the crash left part of the aircraft wedged into the windshield of the tractor trailer. The pilot, identified by the Los Angeles County coroner as 53-year-old Larry Voit of Gardena, was declared dead at the scene. Fire officials say bystanders had pulled the pilot from the wreckage and tried to give him CPR until firefighters arrived. “There was a bystander, a truck driver who was there at the scene, he stopped his truck, jumped out and assisted by providing CPR to the pilot of the aircraft,” LAFD spokesman David Ortiz said. The pilot who passed away has not been identified.

At a time when the simple act of traveling through the United States often put Black people in physical danger, “The Negro Motorist Green Book” was an essential guide to safe spaces. That’s why the Negro Motorist Green Book, which listed restaurants, hotels and other businesses that welcomed African Americans, became known as the “bible of Black travel.” Published from 1936 to 1967, the guides included more than 10,000 sites, but only about 3% still stand, says Candacy Taylor, author of "Overground Railroad." And it’s important to visit them, she says. Want to know more about the places mentioned in the Green Book and what they look like now? Here's a look at some notable sites.
