“Lucy Craft Laney is in the south, where racial violence is intensifying, the lines are hardening…and she is out here trying to create spaces for education for black children. That’s huge.” 

—Abena Ansah-Wright


In this episode of Carved in Ebony, Jasmine Holmes and Abena Ansah-Wright discuss Lucy Craft Laney, an educator born in Georgia in 1854. She was educated at an American Missionary Association school, and went on to start her own school for black children in her home state of Georgia, where she served as principal.
