10 REasons to go to the black heritage trail

We had a lot of great tours on the last day! The Harvard Tour was absolutely gorgeous! Our tour guide Ronia, a current Harvard student, gave us an amazing tour! Touring is one of the experiences that you have to go there in person and feel the space, the weather, the architecture, the people, the sound, and the sense of learning. I cannot tell you how I felt to be in the Harvard Tour. But I can tell you some fun facts about Harvard! Harvard is a liberal arts college. Because President Lowell said you should learn a little of everything and something very well, you are required to take 1⁄4 of your classes as General Education, 1⁄2 of your classes as your major or concentration that you want to study, and the rest, you just do whatever you want. Sounds fun?
Later on we guided ourselves to the Black Heritage Trail. It was an educational and meaningful tour. Here are ten reasons why you should go visit the Black Heritage Trail: 1) You get to see the 54th Regiment Memorial, 2) You get to visit Beacon Hill, 3) You will find out all about Phillips School, 4) You will hear about the Underground Railroad, 5) You will see the Charles Street Meeting House, 6) You will know who is Timothy Gilberg, 7) You will get to learn about the history of the African Meeting House, 8) You will find out who is the first woman who gave a speech about politics at the African Meeting House, 9) You will learn about William Gear Reverson, 10) You seriously have to visit this trail because of the previous nine things I told you.
