This design honors greats such as John Henry “Jack” Yates, founder of the Freedmen’s Academy, which would later become Texas Southern University, and Raphael O’Hara Lanier, the first president of TSU in 1948. Other prominent educators featured include former HISD superintendent and United States Secretary of Education Rod Paige, as well as black dentist and civil rights activist Lonnie Smith.
