Tuskegee institution is a very unique school that has a hidden history to it. Lewis Adams was the man who helped the drive to make this school to become what it is. This school is extra interesting to me not because of how it was founded, but where. The history of how it came to be is remarkable, and it known as a “Normal school for colored teachers”. Although this is great, my favorite part is the message they send through the building that started it all. Booker T. Washington was the first principle of Tuskegee. Washington had great fundraising and negotiating skills leading to the purchase of a 1000 acre abandoned plantation. This would later become the center of this campus and still is today.
