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.
