Celebrating HBCU Grads Teaching in America's Classrooms
Since their inception in 1837 (Cheyney University of Pennsylvania), HBCUs (Historically Black Colleges and Universities) have vitally shaped Black leaders, educators, and innovators. These institutions are more than schools鈥攖hey are beacons of resilience, culture, and community, fostering environments where students can thrive academically and personally. Today, HBCUs continue to play a pivotal role in opportunity gaps in education, promoting racial equity, and advancing social justice by nurturing students in an environment that champions diversity, community, and a shared history of resilience. Together, let's uplift HBCU Alumni educators.
