Teach For America at Dockery Farms

Delta State’s Delta Center for Culture and Learning recently provided a heritage tour for twenty-five visiting Robertson Scholars and sixty-five Teach For America corps members. The day-long event required two coach buses, and included an introduction to the Delta’s cultural heritage followed by visits to Dockery Farms, Fannie Lou Hamer’s grave, the Drew Rosenwald school, historic Mound Bayou, and Po’ Monkey’s Lounge.  The group is pictured at Dockery Farms.
