Penn as a Center of Gullah Preservation -- Appendix: Beaufort County and St. Helena Subdivision Population Data. 520 2 "For more than 150 years, the Penn Center, located on St. Helena Island, South Carolina, has been an epicenter of African American education, historic preservation, and social justice for tens of thousands of descendants of formerly enslaved West Africans living in the Sea Islands. Founded in 1862 in the midst of the Civil War after the island was secured by Union troops, the Penn School was established by two Northern missionaries, Laura M. Towne and Ellen Murray, to provide a formal education for former slaves who formed the nucleus of the coastal Gullah Geechee community. Burton and Cross examine the intricate history and evolution of the Penn Center over the past 150 years and place it in its modern context. In 1901, the Penn School expanded to become the Penn Normal, Agricultural and Industrial School after adopting the industrial arts curriculum taught at Hampton and Tuskegee Institutes. The educational training stood at the forefront of progressivism and reform as it helped to advance an entire generation and community into the Industrial Age after slavery. This project makes a tremendous contribution with its examination of Penn Center's role in the Civil Rights Movement: it was the only location in South Carolina where interracial groups, including Dr. King's Southern Christian Leadership Conference and the Peace Corps, could have safe sanctuary in an era of mandated segregation. During the Sea Island resort boom of the mid- to late-20th century, the Penn Center was instrumental in preserving land on St. Helena. Since 1974, the campus of seventeen historic structures and eight other sites has been designated a National Historic Landmark District, one of only four in the state of South Carolina, and the only African American historic district so named"--|cProvided by publisher. 588 0 Print version record. 590 eBooks on EBSCOhost|bEBSCO eBook Subscription Academic Collection - North America 610 20 Penn Center Historic District (Saint Helena Island, S.C.) |0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/no2008083769 |xHistory.|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/ sh99005024 610 20 Penn Center of the Sea Islands|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/names/no98108183|xHistory.|0https://id.loc.gov /authorities/subjects/sh99005024 610 27 Penn Center Historic District (Saint Helena Island, S.C.) |2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/1928176 610 27 Penn Center of the Sea Islands.|2fast|0https:// id.worldcat.org/fast/741420 650 0 Gullahs|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/ sh93004356|zSouth Carolina|zSaint Helena Island|0https:// id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh85116571-781|xHistory. |0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh99005024 650 0 African Americans|xEducation|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/subjects/sh85001946|zSouth Carolina|zSaint Helena Island|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/ sh85116571-781|xHistory.|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/ subjects/sh99005024 650 0 Social movements|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/ sh85123979|zSouth Carolina|zSaint Helena Island|0https:// id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh85116571-781|xHistory. |0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh99005024 650 0 Social justice|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/ sh85123969|zSouth Carolina|zSaint Helena Island|0https:// id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh85116571-781|xHistory. |0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh99005024 650 0 Historic preservation|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/ subjects/sh92002913|zSouth Carolina|zSaint Helena Island |0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh85116571-781 |xHistory.|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/ sh99005024 650 7 History.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/958235 650 7 Gullahs.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/949329 650 7 African Americans|xEducation.|2fast|0https:// id.worldcat.org/fast/799600 650 7 Social movements.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/ 1122657 650 7 Social justice.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/ 1122603 650 7 Historic preservation.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast /957821 650 7 HISTORY|zUnited States|xState & Local|xSouth (AL, AR, FL, GA, KY, LA, MS, NC, SC, TN, VA, WV)|2bisacsh 650 7 Race relations.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/ 1086509 650 7 Social conditions.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/ 1919811 650 7 Social movements.|2homoit|0https://homosaurus.org/v3/ homoit0001322 651 0 Saint Helena Island (S.C.)|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities /subjects/sh85116571|xHistory.|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/subjects/sh99005024 651 0 Saint Helena Island (S.C.)|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities /subjects/sh85116571|xSocial conditions.|0https:// id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh2001008850 651 0 Saint Helena Island (S.C.)|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities /subjects/sh85116571|xRace relations.|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/subjects/sh00007552 651 7 South Carolina|zSaint Helena Island.|2fast|0https:// id.worldcat.org/fast/1242119 655 0 Electronic books. 655 4 Electronic books. 655 7 History.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/1411628 700 1 Cross, Wilbur,|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/ n80001272|eauthor. 700 1 Campbell, Emory S.|q(Emory Shaw),|d1941-|0https:// id.loc.gov/authorities/names/n2005049026|ewriter of foreword. 776 08 |iPrint version:|aBurton, Orville Vernon.|tPenn Center |z9780820326023|w(DLC) 2014008627|w(OCoLC)876432051 830 0 UPCC book collections on Project MUSE.|pHistory. 856 40 |uhttps://rider.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https:// search.ebscohost.com/login.aspx?direct=true&scope=site& db=nlebk&AN=802116|zOnline ebook via EBSCO.
