YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

Alison Stewart, a long-time radio and TV journalist and the daughter of Dunbar High School alumni, tells the story of D.C.'s Dunbar High, founded in 1870 as the country's first black public high school. For decades Dunbar attracted a stellar faculty and graduated students who went on to illustrious careers. In recent years, however, Dunbar has joined the ranks of failing urban schools. What happened? And can Dunbar be revitalized?

Founded by Carla Cohen and Barbara Meade in 1984, Politics & Prose Bookstore is Washington, D.C.'s premier independent bookstore and cultural hub, a gathering place for people interested in reading and discussing books. Politics & Prose offers superior service, unusual book choices, and a haven for book lovers in the store and online.
