African Americans in Kansas

There is an African-American community in Kansas, including in Kansas City, Kansas.[3] Nicodemus, Kansas is the oldest surviving town west of the Mississippi River settled solely by African Americans.

Brown v. Board of Education of Topeka was decided in 1954.[4]

As of the 2020 U.S. Census, African Americans were 5.7% of the state's population. They are concentrated in Wyandotte County and Geary County.[5]

## History

[edit]

Main article: History of slavery in Kansas

Kansas was admitted to the United States as a free state in 1861. Some Black slaves were imported to Kansas. Many Black migrants came from the Southern United States as hired laborers while others traveled to Kansas as escaped slaves via the Underground Railroad. Some moved from the South during the Kansas Exodus in the 1860s. Kansas was not immune from Jim Crow segregation, race riots, white supremacy and violence from racist white people. Newspapers have documented incidents of white people lynching a black man in Fort Scott and white mobs attacking black Americans held in jails in Leavenworth, Topeka, and Kansas City.[6]

In 1954, Brown v. Board of Education of Topeka was decided and desegregated schools nationwide.[4]

## Geography

[edit]

Nicodemus, Kansas was settled by African Americans in the 1870s, commemorated in the Nicodemus National Historic Site. Nicodemus is the oldest remaining town settled entirely by African Americans located west of the Mississippi River. Most of the town's founders were formerly enslaved.[7] Most Black people in Kansas originally lived in the Eastern portions of the state because the Underground Railroad had stops there.[8] Kansas City also has a significant Black population.[vague]
