African American private academies  

Definición

  • Dissatisfied with a second-rate education, Africans in America and African Americans historically have opened independent schools or private academies in attempts to either integrate segregated schools or gain influence over the policy, curriculum, and instruction of schools operated for them by European Americans. In the 1800s, Black parents complained that private schools operated by White religious and benevolent societies did not expect enough of Black students.
