En savoir plus sur le livre
Between 1910 and the mid-1920s, more than sixty black students from the South bravely traveled north to Ferris Institute, a small, mostly white school in Big Rapids, Michigan.They came to enroll in college programs and college preparatory courses--and to escape, if only temporarily, the daily and ubiquitous indignities suffered under the Jim Crow racial hierarchy. Haste to Rise is a book about the incredible resiliency and breathtaking accomplishments of those students. It was written to unearth, contextualize, and share their stories and important lessons with this generation. Along the way we are introduced to dozens of these Jim Crow-era students. Haste to Rise is a challenge to others to look beyond a university's official history and seek a more complete knowledge of its past.
