At the turn of the century, the North Carolina Mutual Life
Insurance Company became the "world's largest Negro business."
Located in Durham, North Carolina, which was known as the "Black
Wall Street of America," this business came to symbolize the ideas
of racial progress, self-help, and solidarity in America. Walter B.
Weare's social and intellectual history, originally published in
1973 (University of Illinois Press) and updated here to include a
new introduction, still stands as the definitive history of black
business in the New South. Drawing on a wide range of
sources--including personal papers of the company's leaders and
oral history interviews--Weare traces the company's story from its
ideological roots in the eighteenth century to its economic success
in the twentieth century.
