This book introduces us to Julius Rosenwald a well established Jewish buissness man who saw that whites and blacks were equal and should be given an equal education.

Julius Rosenwald opened schools for the Colored schools that would provide them with an education unlike they had before.  The Rosenwald schools offered a proper and education unlike they had never known before.

This book shows of a man who was ahead of his time in his determination to build better schools for Coloreds.
