African Americans and the Color Line in Ohio: 1915-1930

by William W. Giffin

This analysis of the Ohio color line speaks to those historians who still are inclined to discuss Jim Grow as a wholly southern phenomenon. It indicates that the color line in the North was not uniform and provides further evidence of the importance of locale and local people in African American history. At the same time, it offers stories of inherent interest revealing human conduct at its best and worst.
