Not in Our Neighborhood

A little-known instance of racist violence, in Saint Paul’s Groveland Park neighborhood, comes to light in Landmark Center. African American attorney William Francis-later the U.S. Ambassador to Liberia-and his civil rights activist wife, Nellie, planned to move from the Rondo neighborhood to a home on Sargent Ave. Their plans were met with petitions, demonstrations, death threats, and eventually two separate cross burnings.
