8:46 am
been hiding in plap sight for decades before researchers discovered it had once before the williamsburg school. janice has lived her all her life she passed the building countless times, not knowing its past, and for her, history is empowering >> i needed to know so i could teach my children who they were. so they would feel like, when they walk into a space, that they had every right to be there. >> the school operated from 1760 to 1774. its mission, to education black children, most of them enslaved. dr. maureen is the director of the lab at william and mary. >> they were based in london they were rooted in anglican faith and had a mission to educate children they considered heathens >> the enslaifrers actually thought they were saving their souls. students ages 3 to 10 were taught to read the bible and other books. the lessons geared towards obed,
