The Laclede Town development in the 1960s took the site, so the church moved to 1260 Hamilton Avenue. The first Roman Catholic church for a black congregation, St. Elizabeth's, opened the following year in the former Vinegar Hill Hall at 14th and Gay. Its Oblate Sisters of the Poor, an order for black nuns, opened a parish school in 1880, and published the Chronicle in the 1920s and 1930s.
While a "black aristocracy" of merchants and professionals existed here by the late 1850s, their lives were far more restrictive than those of their white counterparts. Blacks were subject to housing restrictions, curfews, bans on education, and prohibition from testifying in court against whites. We take great pride in the quality of our products; therefore all items are thoroughly inspected before leaving our warehouse.
Return and Exchange Policy
Like European immigrants, these Exodusters were both pushed and pulled north. Troops would eliminate their rights or, worse yet, return them to slavery. The KKK gave added impetus to fear for safety and life. At the same time, they were attracted by the lure of land in the opening West.
Missouri law banned teaching African-Americans to read and write starting in 1847, growing largely out of fears by slave owners that an educated black population would be a rebellious one. However, the Mississippi River was considered beyond state jurisdiction, governed by federal law only-and beyond the reach of the school ban. John Berry Meachum created a new school on a barge in the Mississippi River.

Creators of the short-lived Liberty Party first met in St. Louis in the 1880s to form a new black national party. It held but one national convention to nominate a presidential candidate, coming to St. Louis in 1904. William T. Scott of East St. Louis and his running mate W. C. Payne of Warrenton, West Virginia, made scarcely a blip on the political screen in Theodore Roosevelt's landslide victory. Most African-American politicos felt they had better chances at influencing policy by working within the existing party system. At the end of the Civil War, Missouri enacted a new state constitution.
The 'Hoods: Segregated Housing
People who lived in St. Louis and other border cities like it had more frequent contact with slaves with known abilities. By the time those words appeared in The Souls of Black Folk the lines of segregation in America were drawn in thick, bold lines. Racial segregation was institutionalized in St. Louis by intent, accident, or benign neglect throughout its history, effecting the nature of race relations in the city today.

To accommodate the poorest displaced residents, the St. Louis Housing Authority continued to construct public housing on the north side-a decision reinforcing the racial segregation of the city. Mill Creek Valley was an African-American district from the mid-1800s through the turn of the century. A mix of homes, tenements, shops, saloons, dance halls, and night clubs gave the area a special character.
