Talk:History of Davenport, Iowa

Race Relations
In researching African Americans in Davenport, Iowa, I came across some interesting things. This town was active in the abolition movement, was the first refuge of Dred Scott, was the scene of large African American migration from the south (as a Mississippi River port) during the Civil War and the Great Migration. It was the scene of a 2000 person protest march against the showing of Birth of a Nation and a center of civil rights activism in the 60s. I'm surprised to find that, in a nominally "good article" there isn't the slightest mention that black folks even lived here. T L Miles (talk) 20:18, 25 February 2009 (UTC)
