BLACK-OWNED PUBLISHING COMPANY, HBCU PREP SCHOOL, IS ON A MISSION TO EDUCATE CHILDREN OF COLOR


Nationwide O.W. Gurley, Dora Wells, and Solomon Sir Jones aren’t household names. But Claudia Walker, founder and CEO of an award-winning publishing company based in Oakland, California, called HBCU Prep School aims to change that. In her new book, The ABCs of Black Wall Street, she takes children on a nostalgic trip through the heart of the historic Greenwood neighborhood in Tulsa, Oklahoma.

The first children’s book of its kind, it transports readers back to the early 1900s to visit iconic establishments like Osborne Monroe's Roller Skating Rink, Mt. Zion Baptist Church, and Williams Dreamland Theater and Candy Store. As they read and journey along Greenwood Avenue, children get to “meet” O.W. Gurley, a real estate mogul, Dora Wells, a fashion designer, and Solomon Sir Jones, a filmmaker — just to name a few.
