Racial Dynamics and Political Turmoil in North Carolina

This chapter explores a pivotal moment in North Carolina's history during the 1890s when a multiracial coalition temporarily seized control of the government. It examines the ensuing backlash from white supremacist groups, the role of media in shaping public perception, and the intersection of racism and misogyny in both historical and contemporary political contexts. The chapter further connects this historical narrative to ongoing struggles for representation and the challenges facing marginalized communities in modern elections.
