| • | Allensworth, Kern County, California, USA, was a town founded with the ideal that African Americans could own property, learn, thrive, and live the American Dream. It was also called the Tuskegee of the West (in reference to Tuskegee, Alabama).
There is much latent force both in men and women of which the world knows nothing, simply because the conditions of their lives are such that their strongest gifts remain dormant. -Colonel Allen Allensworth
