Nearly a year ago, I wrote an in-depth story on how Rosenwald schools educated a generation of Black students in the South during segregation. There were efforts to restore one of those schools in a town about an hour and a half north of Tampa called Okahumpka. Well, it turns out that the organization that’s restoring the school that opened in 1929 said they’ve hit a roadblock. https://www.abcactionnews.com/news/in-depth/small-florida-towns-mission-to-restore-historic-rosenwald-school-hits-roadblock
