The Integreation of the School for the Blind

Join us at the Museum of the American Printing House for the Blind for a presentation on the integration of the Kentucky School for the Blind. As part of the program, guest speaker Louis Tutt, from the Colorado School for the Deaf and the Blind, will talk about how schools for the blind in other states dealt with the issue.  The Colored Department of the Kentucky School for the Blind was established in 1884 in a structure about a quarter mile from the KSB building. The school remained divided into white and "colored" departments until the 1950s. Considered a progressive social reform at the time, the Colored Department nonetheless promoted racism among those least equipped to understand it. In the seventy-five years of its existence, the school sheltered dedicated teachers, both black and white, and students who went on to successful lives and careers. Call 899-2213 to register. Best for older teens and adults.
