Sabbath schools  

Définition(s)

  • Sabbath schools sprung up throughout the South during and after the Civil War; they were established and almost exclusively maintained by formerly enslaved African Americans. These church-sponsored schools operated mainly in the evenings and on weekends, and they provided basic literacy and religious instruction to thousands of students who were not able to attend weekday schools.
