Alternate Timelines

Scenarios about 'HBCUs'

Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs) are institutions of higher education in the United States established before 1964 with the primary mission of educating Black Americans during segregation. These institutions have played a crucial role in providing educational opportunities, developing leadership, and fostering cultural preservation for African Americans when many other colleges barred their attendance. HBCUs continue to serve as centers of academic excellence and cultural heritage while contributing significantly to social mobility and professional development in the Black community.
