Claudia Stack (born May 3, 1966) is an educator, writer, and documentary filmmaker. Her film productions include “Under the Kudzu” (2012) and “Carrie Mae: An American Life” (2015), both of which focus on schools that African American families helped to build during the segregation era. African American families in the South built schools of many different kinds from Reconstruction through the 1950s. Rosenwald schools form the most recognizable part of this school-building movement. Rosenwald schools were schools that African American communities built in partnership with the Julius Rosenwald Fund, which from 1912 to 1932 helped to build almost 5,000 school buildings across the South.
