Woodson\, an accomplished historian and journalist\, recognized the importance of education and awareness of African American accomplishments and contributions to the U. S. These accomplishments were\, in his words\, “overlooked\, ignored\, and even suppressed by the writers of textbooks and the teachers who use them.” He created “Negro history kits” and teacher curriculum to counter this ignorance. Woodson dedicated his life to advancing research and education about African Americans. He founded a press\, a journal\, and a professional society to support academic discourse and understanding of African American history and life. The son of enslaved people from Virginia\, Woodson worked as an agricultural laborer and later a miner while earning a high school diploma. He went on to earn a BA (Berea)\, an MA (UChicago)\, and a DPhil (Harvard). https://encyclopediavirginia.org/entries/woodson-carter-g-1875-1950/ \n\n\n\nOngoing exhibits through August 1\, 2026: \n\n\n\nWeatherspoon Art Museum (1109 Spring Garden Street): \n\n\n\nPrecious D.
