Black El Paso Columnist Dr. Maceo Dailey's Inaugural Column
The McCall Neighborhood Center is El Paso's key gathering place for many small organizations. Though the majority of the organizations that meet at the center are African American, it is open to all who desire to enhance the existence of this wonderful piece of history.
The McCall Neighborhood Center is our place. Established in 1983 by the late Leona Ford Washington, the center boasts a museum, gift shop and several rooms in which classes or fraternal, civic and cultural organizations are held. Major African American celebrations such as Kwanzaa and the annual Juneteenth Breakfast are also held at the center.
The historic home of Marshall and Olalee McCall, this viable piece of our history here in El Paso is in need of donations. . Admission is free and the center is open Monday through Friday from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m., weekends by appointement.
If you are searching for a worthy cause to give to, please consider the McCall Neighborhood Center. Please contact center director, Mrs. Barbara Butts for further information.
Mrs. Butts will be featured as our Person of the Month for May/June.

Facts: Marshall McCall was the first African American postal worker in El Paso, and his wife, Olalee, was a principal of Douglass School which was established in approximately 1895. Douglass school was an all black school due to segregation which was ever-present in America for a period of time. The school was home to students from Kindergarten through 12th Grade.
