On July 22, we celebrated the one year anniversary of the historic graduation ceremony where 24 Black Deaf students from Kendall School Division II were given their high school diplomas that were denied to them more than 70 years ago due to discrimination.
The July 22 gathering brought together more than 60 guests to the Kellogg Conference Center Hotel for a time to remember and reflect in community on Kendall 24 Day.
A mini-exhibit displayed renderings of the forthcoming Louise B. Miller Pathways and Gardens: A Legacy to Black Deaf Children, which will be the world’s largest monument to the Black Deaf community as well as an outdoor learning space.
