Little Sun on the Horizon Little Sun People, a public-private daycare and preschool that serves children ages two to four, has occupied a space in Restoration Plaza for almost 40 years. The school, which was founded by Fela Barclift, known in the classroom as Mama Fela, got its start in her brownstone at 350 Jefferson Street in 1980. It is one of a handful of schools left in Brooklyn that teaches students through an Afrocentric perspective. Currently, their waitlist sits at 224 children with only 56 seats available. And for the upcoming school year, the school has received 121 applications for their 3-K program and 94 for Pre-K. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fbd885d70aa7e58bbc8788e/1653500485082-5KVTLO5MT3QSICZV2X18/Danner_MastersProject_052022_LSP007.JPG The Sun Always Shines in Brooklyn A banner with the phrase “Black Lives Matter” is displayed at the entrance to the Little Sun People classroom area on Friday, March 26, 2021. ©Henry Danner, 2022, All Rights Reserved https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fbd885d70aa7e58bbc8788e/1653500485438-8242WGEG8ULKZ1O5J5TM/Danner_MastersProject_052022_LSP008.JPG The Sun Always Shines in Brooklyn Students in Little Sun People’s Zulu Fouriors class listen as their teacher mama Aaliyah reads to them on Thursday, April 29, 2021. ©Henry Danner, 2022, All Rights Reserved https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fbd885d70aa7e58bbc8788e/1653500487009-GWKBDN9M8GAQCT95BGA0/Danner_MastersProject_052022_LSP009.JPG The Sun Always Shines in Brooklyn Students in Little Sun People’s Ife Threes class create artistic versions of themselves after participating in a lesson about the variety of Black hair textures on Thursday, April 29, 2021. ©Henry Danner, 2022, All Rights Reserved https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fbd885d70aa7e58bbc8788e/1653500487557-ZNUYLEVEQWDM4U599CYH/Danner_MastersProject_052022_LSP010.JPG The Sun Always Shines in Brooklyn Mama Cmae helps Amari with his costume as he prepares for the Black History Month celebration at Little Sun People on March 24, 2022.
