SUMMARY:Black History Film Series: American Coup: Wilmington 1898 - July 2025
DESCRIPTION:“American Coup: Wilmington 1898 was co-produced by PBS North Carolina\, American Experience\, and 371 Productions. This film\, produced and directed by our friend Yoruba Richen\, who spoke during the SAAACAM panel discussion in November 2024 about the Green Book research\, uncovers the untold story of the only successful coup d’état in U.S. history\, when white supremacists overthrew Wilmington’s multiracial government in 1898. \nThis pivotal new documentary sheds light on a suppressed chapter in American history\, exploring themes of racial violence\, media suppression\, and the enduring fight for democracy and equity. The key aspects of the Wilmington Coup were: \n\nViolence and Intimidation: White supremacists used a campaign of violence and intimidation to seize power.\nOverthrow of the Government: They forcibly removed the existing elected government and installed their own hand-picked officials.\nDestruction of Black-Owned Businesses: The destruction of a local Black-owned newspaper office\, the Daily Record\, was a significant part of the coup.\nImpact on the Black Community: The massacre and coup had a devastating impact on the Black community\, leading to widespread fear\, violence\, and the forced expulsion of many Black residents.\nSuppression of Voting Rights: The coup paved the way for the complete disenfranchisement of Black voters through measures like the grandfather clause\, further solidifying white supremacy.\nRepercussions: The event had far-reaching consequences\, influencing the rise of Jim Crow laws and the broader context of racial inequality in the South\n\nImmediately following the film\, join us for the lively panel discussion. Brought to you in part by COSA Office of Historic Preservation. \nADMISSION IS FREE\, BUT REGISTRATION IS REQUIRED!\nThe doors to The Little Carver open at 5:30pm\, and the film begins at 6pm.
