Description:
During a time when America largely ignored the education of African Americans and discrimination was widespread, The Bordentown School offered an exceptional learning environment. For seventy years, it fostered black pride and intellectual growth, providing generations of students with values, discipline, and practical skills. This film explores the story of this remarkable school through the recollections of alumni, historians, and rare archival footage. It also examines the history of black education in America over three centuries, revealing a unique perspective on a segregated space and offering important context for today's conversations about historically black institutions and their impact on identity and achievement. The film asks: what was lost and what was gained in the pursuit of equality?
