About: During slavery, black men and women weren’t allowed to get an equal education unless they were free. The opening of Storer College in Harpers Ferry allowed freed men a chance to go to school and better themselves by learning to read, wright and do arithmetic.. Now all citizens can go to school no matter what race.
