Archaeologists Uncover Artifacts from St. Augustine's Segregated Black Schools
Archaeologists in St. Augustine, Florida, are conducting a study of the city's historically segregated Black schools, uncovering artifacts that shed light on the educational experiences of Black students in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. The project, part of a grant-funded initiative, involves the excavation of sites such as School No. 2 and St. Benedict the Moor School. These schools played a significant role in the community before desegregation led to their closure. The findings include everyday items like pencil fragments and ink wells, offering a glimpse into the past educational environment.
