My friend Everett Fly, who is a National for the Humanities medalist, and I, both Alamo Heights High School graduates, are trying to identify Black pioneers of the Alamo Heights school system to recognize. These folk integrated Heights during the 1950s and ’60s. We have some names and need help finding them so we can recognize them. If you could help, it would make a great column for Black History Month in the Express-News. Joseph and I are determined to use the February event to bring awareness to history that has been denied.
