Delaware

by Jeanne D. Nutter Ph.D.

Overview

African-American life in Delaware from the late 1800s to the 1960s was characterized by a struggle for equity in a time when there was none. This vigorous community set about developing its own institutions and activities, and what emerged was a rich cultural life that produced or attracted some of the best and brightest of African-American minds.
