Blackwell School Named National Historic Site in Texas
The Blackwell School in Marfa, Texas, originally built in 1909 for Mexican-American students during segregation, has been designated as a national park, symbolizing progress in education and equality. The site includes the original adobe schoolhouse and aims to commemorate Latino history and culture. Interior Secretary Deb Haaland led the formal establishment of the site, marking a significant step in acknowledging the history of racial segregation in education. The bipartisan effort, including legislation introduced by Sen. John Cornyn and Rep. Tony Gonzales, resulted in the creation of the Blackwell School National Historic Site, representing a move towards preserving diverse cultural heritage and promoting understanding of past injustices.
