  • N O R Th 24Th Str Eet W a Lk in G to Ur
    presents the NORTH 24TH STREET WALKING TOUR STREET WALKING 24TH NORTH North 24th Street is pretty quiet these days. There is a little noise from the barbershops and retail outlets that dot the streetscape. A couple of restau- rants are making a go of it just off the thoroughfare on Lake Street. And there’s a burgeoning arts scene. But the music that once enlivened the area is mostly silent. For blacks who began to reside in North Omaha during the early 20th century, 24th Street became known as the “Street of Dreams.” The area around 24th and Lake Streets emerged as a lively district of music clubs, theaters, restau- rants and retail shops. It Members of the Marching was a haven for enter- Majorettes during a parade passing tainment from the 1920s the intersection of 24th and Lake through the 1960s. in the 1950s. Photo courtesy Great Plains Black History Museum. The street also was important to Jewish settlers, who began to populate the area in the 1890s. They called the stretch of North 24th Street from Cuming to Lake Streets the “Miracle Mile.” Jewish historian Arthur Grossman described the street as “the arterial lifeline connecting homes, shops, and sundry suppliers of products and services necessary for the maintenance of Jewish life.” Blacks, Jews and other ethnicities coexisted peacefully for decades. In 1914, there were 17 grocery stores, five tailors, seven shoe repair shops and five second-hand stores on that stretch of North 24th Street alone, along with confectioners, barbers and butchers. Within four years, 15 of the businesses in the area were owned by blacks, including five restaurants.

  • The Omaha Riot Op 1919 by Arthur V. Age a Thesis
    THE OMAHA RIOT OP 1919 BY ARTHUR V. AGE A THESIS Submitted to the Faculty of the Graduate School of the. Creighton University in Partial Fulfillment ox the Requirements for the Degree of Master of Arts in the Department of History OMAHA, 1964 Thesis Approved ALUMNI MEMORIAL LIBRARY 3S44S2 Creighton University Omaha, Nebraska 68131 PREFACE The writing of this thesis was prompted by the unique circumstances surrounding the lynching of Will Brown. The purpose of the thesis is to unravel the strange effects of this unusual lynching and riot. Because of the local and political nature of the event, such usual source materials as books and journals relating to it are practically non-existent. As a result, the main source of this thesis has been the stirring daily record provided by the newspapers of Omaha as found in the files of the Omaha Public Library. I am deeply appreciative of the aid given by its librarians. It is hoped that the account rendered here will shed light on the mystery surrounding Omaha's venture into mob rule.
