Villagers refused to sell Miss Crandall groceries or let her students attend the town church. Mysteriously, her schoolhouse was set on fire-by whom and how remains a mystery. The town authorities dragged her to jail and put her on trial for breaking the law. Her crime? Trying to teach African American girls geography, history, reading, philosophy, and chemistry. Trying to open and maintain one of the first African American schools in America. Exciting and eye-opening, this account of the heroine of Canterbury, Connecticut, and her elegant white schoolhouse at the center of town will give readers a glimpse of what it is like to try to change the world when few agree with you. 000324691 60010 $$aCrandall, Prudence,$$d1803-1890$$vJuvenile literature. 000324691 650_0 $$aWomen educators$$zConnecticut$$vBiography$$vJuvenile literature. 000324691 650_0 $$aAfrican American women$$xEducation$$zConnecticut$$xHistory$$vJuvenile literature. 000324691 85200 $$bcmc$$hLA2317.C73$$iJ87$$i2005 000324691 85642 $$3Publisher description$$uhttp://www.loc.gov/catdir/enhancements/fy0617/2004026554-d.html 000324691 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:324691$$pGLOBAL_SET 000324691 980__ $$aBIB 000324691 980__ $$aBOOK
