Preferred term

Clara Muhammad schools  

Definition(s)

  • Clara Muhammad Schools evolved out of the love of a determined mother who took a stand in 1934, insisting that Muslim children be educated by teachers who will love, protect, and teach them about the greatness of their future and their Islamic and African heritage. Clara Muhammad refused to send her children to Chicago public schools, which were under the scourge of racial oppression known as Jim Crow.
