SALON EXPLORES BIAS AGAINST BLACK GRAD STUDENTS
Our first Sidney’s Salon of 2025 features historian Dr. Crystal R. Sanders, author of “A Forgotten Migration: Black Southerners, Segregation Scholarships, and the Debt Owed to Public HBCUs.”
On March 27, Dr. Sanders will present her lecture, "Pursuing Their Highest Potential: Black Southerners and Graduate Education during the Era of Legal Segregation” at the Wesleyan College Leadership Lab on Cherry Street. We will begin with a reception at 5:30 p.m., and the presentation will begin at 6.
This lecture is about the obstacles that Black southerners faced and overcame as they pursued graduate and professional school study during the era of legal segregation. While more than 100 public and private Black colleges existed in the South, training beyond the bachelor’s degree was almost impossible.
Our Salons are free, but please register beforehand to help us prepare.
Our mission is to revitalize communities by preserving architecture and sharing history.
One of the benefits of your property residing in a National Register Historic District is preservation incentives. Historic tax credits allow citizens to undertake rehabilitation projects at a reasonable cost and Historic Macon is here to walk you through that process.
A key part of Historic Macon's mission is education. We tell the stories of people who make a difference in our preservation community, as well as those pioneering visionaries whose shoulders we stand on today. Read more about them HERE.
