DePriest was defeated by a Democrat in 1934: he was the last black Republican in the House for 56 years. The election of [Franklin D. Roosevelt]] in 1932 led a shift of black voting loyalties from Republican to Democrat as the Democrats became the party of economic advancement and (some time later) civil rights for black Americans. By the 1960s virtually all black voters were Democrats. Two black Republicans have been elected since 1991, but both from white-majority districts.
