The Scarboro 85 project is a place in which people could pay tribute to the people and the 85 students from the black community of Oak Ridge, that back in the 50’s participated in the integration of communities, proposed by the US goverment of that time. They had to go to schools where only white kids went. This great and heroic act from the kids was very important for the integration of communities in the US.
Particularly the project consists in two big walls that each represent one community that came from different paths but then converge in one point. Remarkable persons of the act of integration are dettached from the walls so people could see and learn who they were and what they did.
