Mission: It is important for us to establish there was Black Life in Northeast Arkansas by establishing the following:
- Provide an insight into the African American life in the Trans-Ozarks-Delta counties of the Arkansas Delta.
Promote African American historical involvement, courage, efforts, and awareness of the Hoxie School desegregation in which precedents were set.
- Provide a broader than textbook perspective of the event, promote historical awareness and the discipline of public history, thereby preserving the legacy of the Hoxie21 AA students and their families.
- Provide historical and multi-cultural diversity experiences for inclusion into historical context by telling the story.
Belief:
We believe today’s problems concerning our school children are found in our history. It is also our belief that “living images of history,” along with supportive documentation, sharing of photos, personal reflections and narratives will cultivate interest by stepping out of the models of textbooks. The students’ stories and families have yet to be captured. The -complexities of the un-benchmarked success in Hoxie Our experiences are ripe with untold nuisances and certainly a part are of American history. We must tell our own stories.
