Teachers in Front of Douglass School - El Paso, Texas
Teachers in Front of Douglass School - El Paso, Texas
Several teachers, including Blanche Phillips, congregated in front of Douglass School in 1920. Since many African Americans sought the opportunity for education, many black women found teaching to be a wonderful chance to earn a living outside the home. Douglass School was organized by black families in 1883. It added a high school program in the 1890s. In 1920, the School moved to its current location on Eucalyptus Street. The school became both a place to learn and a social center for black families until El Paso public schools were desegregated in 1956. The School was named after Frederick Douglass (1817-1895), who escaped slavery and devoted his life to the abolition movement and black rights in the United States.
