ORAN Z’s PAN AFRICAN BLACK FACTS & WAX MUSEUM

The Importance of Education to Black America and Black History Page 1
by Roger Smith

Frederick Douglass, at the twenty-third anniversary of the Emancipation Proclamation stated that “Education, the sheet anchor to a society where liberty and justice are secure, is a dangerous thing to society in the presence of injustices and oppressions….” Douglass knew that in order for black people in America to survive, they had to be educated because it was the one area that could make the weak person strong and the black person equal.

By the time the modern day Civil Rights Movement started, its leaders already knew that education was knowledge, and that knowledge was power. In order for black people to gain their equality, they would have to have a solid foundation to stand on, and that foundation would be education.

Oran is currently looking for another location for the museum. He’s seeking the help of the community to aid and assist him in keeping our history alive, on display and available for all to experience.
