Mississippi freedom schools  

Définition(s)

  • The concept of freedom schools had been utilized by educators and activists prior to the summer of 1964 in, for instance, Boston, New York, and Prince Edward County, Virginia, where public schools were closed in reaction to the 1954 Brown v. Board of Education decision or, in the case of Boston, as acts of protest against detrimental school conditions. The concept of freedom schools was used after 1964 as well, but no such schools matched the number or duration of the Mississippi freedom schools.
