Black towns were established to promote economic independence, self-government, and social equality for Blacks. More than 80 such towns were settled 50 years after the American Civil War.
This page lists African-American Settlements by state that need a free space page documenting the history of the town, connection to existing profiles of town residents and list those who need profiles created. Once the FSP has been created, please remove it from this list.
