Silas H. Hunt was a trailblazer. He was the first African American student to be accepted by a southern university for professional studies since Reconstruction, paving the way for future generations. I hope you’ll join me in celebrating his legacy today. https://governor.arkansas.gov/images/uploads/proclamations/21.01_.14_Silas_Hunt_Day_(February_2,_2021)_.pdf |
