What's On Exhibit?
More Than Homemakers:
Stella Fleshmon and the Women Who Influenced a Generation of Carver Students
Known as "the principal's wife," Stella Fleshmon was the head of the Homemaking Department at Carver for the school's entire 20 year history. Her mentorship of younger teachers and stern demeanor left their marks on many students. Explore this and more in our Women's History Month exhibit.
Liberty, Labor and Langston
In 1936, Langston Hughes wrote the poem,
"Let America Be America Again,"
