A couple who hoped to buy and restore a historic Black high school accuses the Charlotte-Mecklenburg Historic Landmarks Commission of racial discrimination after they say officials have made it difficult to acquire the property.
After Tyson and Regina Bates put their kids to bed, they begin a nightly routine of reviewing paperwork in the exhausting process of attempting to buy a historic Black high school in a gentrified area.
They had been planning to restore the Torrence-Lytle School to its original condition to turn it into a school for African American students in the community. The former educators were hoping their four kids could attend the school they wanted to open. But since this process has been ongoing for several years, that dream is now lost for their 18-year-old son who is graduating high school this year.
