As in many cities in the early 20th-century South, the
African-American citizens of Charlotte created their own society
that mirrored the larger white community. Yet, black Charlotte was
always self-sustaining, with its own schools, library, and
businesses. Second Ward High School (1923-1969) was the area's
first high school for blacks, and although the school and much of
its surroundings have since been razed, the photo archive at the
Second Ward Alumni House Museum helps keep alive the memories of
the school and the entire black community.
