About this Episode
Let's help preserve NC history! In today's episode, Cassie and Joann Artiss Stevens discuss the lack of awareness surrounding Rosenwald Schools.
What is a Rosenwald School? How many of these schools existed in North Carolina? What did Rosenwald Schools mean to their communities? We're answering all these questions as we explore segregated education in the Old North State.
Plus, Joann tells us about her experiences at the Snow Hill Colored School.
Who you can contact about helping preserve Snow Hill Colored School:
- Lenoir Community College's Board of Trustees
- Snow Hill Town Council
- Greene County Board of Commissioners
*Correction: Valerie Jarrett did not attend a Rosenwald School. She is a great-granddaughter of Rosenwald School architect Robert Robinson Taylor.
