Bryan was incorporated in 1872, but it would take more than ten
years before its African American population was offered schooling.
Nothing would come easy for them, but they persevered through hard
work, ingenuity and family support. The success of today's
generation is a direct result of determined, hardworking pioneers
like Dr. Samuel J. Sealey Sr., Bryan's "baby doctor" in the 1930s
and '40s, and Dr. William A. Hammond Sr., who opened Bryan's first
black hospital and employed many blacks through his business
ventures. Learn about the inspiration and guidance provided by the
likes of Oliver Wayne Sadberry, an outstanding community leader and
principal of Fairview and Washington Elementary. Dr. Oswell Person
shares the story of this community's achievements, successes and
contributions in the face of incredible odds.
