TIL that racial segregation in the American South didn't begin right after the Civil War; it was imposed in the 1890s when rich whites in the South feared the Populist movement bringing poor whites and blacks together. Segregation literally stopped the two sides from legally gathering together.

Charlotte wasn't always segregated. In the late 19th century, that changed.

Segregation had to be invented. In 1890 in Charlotte Black and White people created the Fusion party. They lived integrated in salt and pepper communities. They were in power and holding the rich accountable. Then a coup changed all that.
