At the Virginia Museum of History and Culture, this exhibition examines one of the most transformative educational initiatives in American history, spearheaded by Booker T. Washington, a Black educator, and Julius Rosenwald, a Jewish businessman and philanthropist. Between 1912 and 1937, their groundbreaking program provided funding to build thousands of schools for Black children across the segregated South. These schools played a crucial role in addressing the severe educational inequities of the Jim Crow era and left a lasting, profound impact on the nation's educational landscape. Dine on your own at the museum.
