Haste to Rise: A Remarkable Experience of Black Education During Jim Crow AUTH-7631143 ENGLISH DESCRIPTIONBetween 1910 and the mid 1920s, more than sixty black students from the South bravely traveled north to Ferris Institute, a small, mostly white school in Big Rapids, Michigan. They came to enroll in college programs and college preparatory courses and to escape, if only temporarily, the daily and ubiquitous indignities suffered under the Jim Crow racial hierarchy. They excelled in their studies and became accomplished in their professional fields.
