Title | African Americans and the Restoration of Williamsburg |
Issue | Volume 36, Number 03 (CWJ, Summer 2014) |
Description | The impact of the Restoration on the African American population of Williamsburg can be described as a mixed blessing. While some blacks saw increased segregation and low-wage jobs, others found more job opportunities, social mobility and improved schools. Restoration affected the black population's schools, churches and housing neighborhoods as well as desegregation patterns. |
