    WoW! I am originally from Cleveland Ohio. I too left Cleveland in 1986 and went into the U.S. Navy. Since then, I have completed my college degrees through to my Ph.D. in Advance Accounting. I started my accounting career at the Karamu House. I usually go to Cleveland once a year to see my parents. Really enjoyed this report.

    I must say something before I continue watching. "Right now I'm living in Phoenix, Az. and the video I watched before this one was a video about my favorite part of Cleveland, and that's The Village Of Miles Hts." We moved to The Village ( this is what all the kids called it then in the 60s) around 1963 on Ohio Ave. from Nicholes Off Wade Park. Those were some of the best times of my life living out there. I mentioned It now because the comment section was off. The last time I was in Cleveland in 2018 I had to visit the spot, and what made my day was a Plaque there commemorating The Village Of Miles Hts right in front of where the house was we called home on Ohio Ave. Which was 15218 that was the address. I'm 69 years old and miss my home town. With the grace of God I am coming home. Peace!!!!

    As with the last video, this is great to know such great things came out of my home town. Really great video.

    I went to Cleveland State and took History of cleveland and they never really talked about blacks, other than George peek was here and that was it.

      I took it a few semesters ago. Extensively, it covers the various migrations here from other areas, businesses, political, educators, and more.
