IKEA Live Oak and the San Antonio African American Community Archive and Museum joined together to celebrate Black History Month. They revealed an exhibit called “Black Resistance at the Lunch Counter.'
PUBLISHED 8:16 PM CST Feb. 28, 2023“Every time I pass by Woolworth, I just get a feeling of warmth and anger,” Wyatt said. “How long it’s taken. I’m 75, and my thing is that after 75 years, we’re still dealing with the color of my skin.”“I was just so angry that I can’t sit here, but I can buy your donuts,” Wyatt said. “You can give it to me, but I have to come out here to eat them.”“They would say racial slurs to me,” Wyatt said.
“The legacy and importance of the Black resistance cannot be understated,” said Deborah Omowale-Jarmon, SAAACAM CEO/president. “I know that in today’s age, we cannot rely on schools or the school system to teach our students about Black history,” said Sabrina Donatto, a San Antonio mother. “Really do try not to use a watered-down or sugar-coated approach,” Donatto said. “Because I want them to know that truth about what happened and how Black people were treated.”“For me, it shows pulling together and trying to work it out between white people and Black people,” said Camille Donatto, who visited the exhibit.
