Albert Einstein Teaching at Lincoln, the United State’s First Historical Black University, 1946
Considered to be one of the greatest geniuses of all time, Albert Einstein spent some of his time teaching at Lincoln University. This was the first black University in the United States. During his lifetime, Einstein advocated for Civil Rights long before it became popular in the 1960’s. While at Princeton University in the 1940’s, he noticed that black students were treated the same way that Jews were treated in Germany. As a Jewish man himself, he could see that parallel of racism happening across nations. He said, “The separation of the races is not a disease of the colored people, but a disease of the white people.”
