This act of racial violence was designed to eliminate all memory of a highly successful Black community in Wilmington, North Carolina back in 1898 and involved involved racist mobs, as well as historians, city planners, journalists and others conspiring for decades to make a Black community’s onetime prosperity and strength unimaginable. Almost unimaginable.

edition of the program on Sunday, February 23.
