The 1970s were a time of immense reform in Oberlin as a result of the Black Power movement. For example, the Afrikan Heritage House was built, the Black studies department was created, and the African American Community Student Development Program began. This was a time when Oberlin college students were focused on the importance of education of all. Booker Peek said “there is no excuse for Black professors - Black intellectuals - not to see the connection between Black freedom and liberation and skills education.” Peek elegantly draws upon the interconnections between education for all, freedom, and Black rights.
