You need to hear this if you're a history buff! Ever heard of the Wilmington Coup of 1898? No? Well, sit tight! Back in 1898, Wilmington, North Carolina, was a thriving, diverse community. But on November 10th, that all changed. The only successful coup d'état in U.S. history unfolded. A group of White supremacists from the local Democrat party overthrew the local government, forcing Black officials to resign at gunpoint. The streets were flooded with chaos, violence, and terror. The coup was meticulously planned by the Democratic Party, aiming to regain political control and enforce racial segregation. Newspapers spread false propaganda, inflaming tensions even more. This violent takeover resulted in countless deaths and destroyed the Black-owned businesses that had been thriving. The aftermath was devastating, cementing racial divides that echoed for generations. Yet, this dark chapter remains largely untold in mainstream history books.
