Excerpt from Negro Progress in a Mississippi Town: Being a Study of Conditions in Jackson, Mississippi

The Negroes of Jackson, who have always outnumbered the whites, but who at present constitute about one-half of the population, have figured largely in this era of' greater prosperity for the town. Twelve years ago, with two conspicuous exceptions, the Negroes were not reckoned in the business life of the town. Comparatively few of them owned property, and that for the most part consisted of the homes occupied by them. A few fraternal societies, the churches, and a periodical organization at the time of national elections, constituted all there was Of associated life among the Negroes of the town.
