Historically Black School Enrollment is Rising, Propelled By the Black Lives Matter Movement
Morgan State is one of the 100 or so historically Black colleges and universities, or HBCUs, in this country. Many were established in the years following the Civil War to educate Black men and women who were not welcome at places that educated white people. Now, a number of those schools are seeing increased enrollment, propelled in part by the Black Lives Matter movement. Morgan State is one of them: Its freshman class nearly doubled last fall from the previous year.
