Floating Freedom Schools (1 янв 1847 г. – 1 янв 1854 г.)
Описание:
in response to the 1847 state law that prohibited the teaching of Black students in Missouri, John and Mary Meachum (who had themselves escaped slavery) started a school on a riverboat. Known as a "floating freedom school," the school housed a library and operated on the Mississippi River waters which was out of the jurisdiction of the prohibitive Missouri laws.
