Summary

Added a NetsBlox service called AfricanAmericanData. It gives students data on African American history in five categories: People, History, Media, Culture, and Community.

What changed

  • New NetsBlox service file (african-american-data.js)
  • Every list-returning block returns plain names/titles (Strings)
  • Every property block (e.g. getPersonOccupation, getEventSummary) takes a name/title and looks up details server-side
  • Flask API endpoints for all 5 categories

Known issues / follow-ups

  • ID-based lookup (instead of name-based) was suggested as a future improvement to avoid duplicate-name/typo issues

Testing

Manually tested all 5 categories against the live AWS endpoint; all works
