It was such an honor and a privilege to tour the TEP Center and meet Leona Tate this morning. This building was the first desegregated school in the state of Louisiana and Leona Tate was one of the first three African American students to attend this school, escorted by US Marshalls through crowds of protesters on November 14, 1960. Her foundation has created a center to tell more about civil rights in New Orleans. Check out more here - https://www.tepcenter.org
