- Wilmington_Insurrection_of_1898 abstract "The Wilmington Coup d'Etat of 1898, also known as the Wilmington Massacre of 1898 or the Wilmington Race Riot of 1898, occurred in Wilmington, North Carolina starting on November 10, 1898 into the following days; it is considered a turning point in North Carolina politics following Reconstruction. Originally described as a race riot, it is now observed as a coup d'etat with insurgents having overthrown the legitimately elected local government.The Wilmington Race riots took place after the democratic party achieved victory in the election of 1898,giving them control of the majority of legislature. Days later a group of white supremacists illegally seized power from the current government in Wilmington by forcing the current fusionist mayor of Wilmington to resign along with the biracial board of aldermen. They then used the newly elected board of alderman that had been hand picked by leading democrats to elect Alfred Waddell as the new mayor. Along with this they ran all black community leaders out of the city and killed many in the riots that ensued.The riots began when a group of as many as 1000 men broke into a printing press used by Alex Manly. They continued to break into the building, destroy the printing press, and then burn the building to the ground. During the riots a mob of clergymen, lawyers, bankers, and merchants who all believed that they were asserting their rights as citizens,and proceeded to banish many blacks from the city as well as murdered an unknown number. The total number of casualties is not known it is thought to be anywhere from twenty five to somewhere in the hundreds.In the 1990s, a grassroots movement arose in the city to acknowledge and discuss the events more openly, and try to reconcile the different accounts of what happened, similar to efforts in Florida and Oklahoma to recognize the early 20th-century race riots of Rosewood and Tulsa, respectively. The city planned events around the insurrection's centennial in 1998, and numerous residents took part in discussions and education events. In 2000 the state legislature authorized a commission to produce a history of the events and to evaluate the economic impact and costs to black residents, with consideration of reparation for descendants of victims. Its report was completed in 2006.".
