Abstract:
In 1902, Charlotte Hawkins Brown returned to North Carolina. She founded the Palmer Memorial Institute, a unique private school for Afro-Americans in Guilford County. It was her life's work for the next fifty years as she developed the school into one of the nation's premier boarding schools for African-Americans. Now a state historic site, it is marking its one hundredth year with a number of events.
