Alcorn, Virgie – CEFP Journal, 1986
Outlines the history of black schools funded by the Rosenwald Fund. The fund was originally established in 1912 at the Tuskegee Institute for Dr. Booker T. Washington to build offshoot schools of Tuskegee. By 1932 it was partially responsible for funding 5,358 modern rural black schools in 15 southern states. (MD)
