Wilkins (Williams) ( ) Inaugural student, Educator, advocate They (colored deaf) have a right to an equal chance with the white man, an equal chance in education to encourage self-improvement and to create high ideals of conduct They need white friends, but taking charge of ministering to their mission only weakens them (1927) [photos: Minnesota State Academy for the Deaf Alumni Association Museum] Birth: 1 December 1876 La Crosse Wisconsin Death: 24 March 1936 Chicago, Illinois (Buried 30 March 1936) Lincoln Cemetery Family of Origin: Father Charles Wilkins and Mother Estelle Griffin Wilkins were both from the south (either Virginia, Tennessee or mostly likely, North Carolina).

Wilkins Hall will house up to 41
7 students along with offices and educational/recreational spaces for students at the Minnesota State Academy for the Deaf. Ms. Wilkins was the first deaf black woman to graduate from the Minnesota School for the Deaf (Class of 1893). She attended MSD for 10 years and was a top student in her class. She was very intelligent and confident, but unfortunately, due to discriminatory practices at that time in history, she was not accepted into Gallaudet College because she was black. She went on to teach in schools for colored deaf children until schools began replacing deaf teachers with hearing teachers (based on the misconception that hearing teachers would be best able to teach language to deaf children). When the North Carolina (Raleigh) Institution established a department of technical sewing, dressmaking, fancy work, etc., Ms. Wilkins was the first teacher there. Records indicate that she may have also worked at the Texas School for Colored Deaf in Austin, Texas. After the death of her husband, Ms. Wilkins moved to the Chicago, Illinois area and lived there for most of her life, working and teaching young deaf black children and working in factories (beadwork, lampshade work, power machine sewing). She was also involved in missionary work along with her second husband. In Unspeakable: the Story of Junius Wilson, it was stated that Ms. Wilkins was a passionate Christian missionary and an outspoken advocate for her race and her deaf peers. Some considered her the most accomplished deaf lady of her race in America. Ms. Wilkins was involved in many advocacy and deaf leadership activities throughout her life and supported others in their endeavors for a better life. The MSA board and I wanted to share our appreciation to all of you who participated in this process with nominations, feedback, and suggestions. Special thanks go to Jody Olson, John Mathews, Mike Cashman, Alex Caddy, and Gary Meier who served on the committee to review all of the names and research background information.
