THE WHY BEHIND OUR GOAL AND EFFORTS:
If something happened in the past, its history. Regardless of who it envolved, its our history, not just the history of one group. Arguably there were reasons educators highlighted, what they taught, it really is our responsibility to use what we learned as a basis to continue learning, remembering and honoring the events and people of our history. I encourage you to post in the comments or send us messages, pictures and historical places you either know about or wish to learn more about. Together we can all learn the HISTORY YOU NEVER LEARNED IN SCHOOL.

Good Luck, Maryland: A former settlement from 1672, now located where the Goddard Space Flight Center and residential areas exist.
Good Luck was a 100-acre property deeded to Alexander Magruder in 1672. Magruder owned approximately 4,000-acres of land in Maryland, and some of his properties, such as Good Luck, were named after locations in the Scottish Highlands.

In 1871, the village of Glennville (later renamed Glenn Dale) was platted by John Glenn and Edmund B. Duvall. Located on the Baltimore and Potomac Railroad, Glenn Dale prospered, and in 1876, Good Luck's post office was moved there. In 1899, Good Luck was described as a "rural village" alongside "the railroad village of Glenn Dale".

"Good Luck Road" is still located at the site of the former settlement, which is currently occupied by the Goddard Space Flight Center and a residential community.

Black History Month: History we were never taught in School: Seneca Village, a 19th-century community of predominantly African American property owners. Founded in 1825 by free Black Americans, the first such community in the city. At its peak, the community had approximately 225 residents, three churches, two schools, and three cemeteries.
Seneca Village existed until 1857, when, through eminent domain, the villagers and other settlers in the area were forced to leave and their houses were torn down for the construction of Central Park. The entirety of the village was dispersed.

Established in 1825, this 5-to-10-acre, middle-class settlement was located between West 82nd and 89th Streets and 7th and 8th Avenues (now Central Park West) in Manhattan.

I encourage everyone to take a moment and feed your curiosity. History is history and knowing your history is powerful for all people!!!

The World’s Oldest Continuously Operated Airport
Did you know? College Park Airport has been an active airport since 1909 when it was founded by the Wright Brothers!

College Park Airport (KCGS) was established in 1909 after Wilbur Wright came to the field to train two military officers to fly in the government’s first aeroplane. The facility is now the world’s oldest continually operated airport and is the site of many significant aviation firsts. College Park Airport, known as the “Field of Firsts,” remains an active airport serving the needs of aircraft pilots, and is also a site for history buffs and aviation enthusiasts.
