Julius Rosenwald's fund put up part of the money for thousands of schools for Black children across the segregated South, and this single storey frame building went up in 1927 with two classrooms and later a third. It is one of four two room Rosenwald schools built in Prince George's County. Restoration finished in 2011 and it now works as a museum of segregated schooling.
That was 1 of the hidden places.
