At a community breakfast recognizing contributions of local leaders to the school, Frederick Douglass High School dedicated a mural portraying the outstanding personalities. The mural, created by Chicago artist Just Flo, depicts portraits of Congressman Danny K. Davis, Sheree Blakemore of Youth Guidance, Mildred Brackett, Juanita Florence, Principal Dr. Debra Crump, and Kenneth B. Morris, Jr., great-great-great grandson of Frederick A. Douglass. Morris heads the Frederick Douglass Family Foundation that crusades against the modern human slave trade. He also educates people about the life and accomplishments of Frederick Douglass.
