  • Blacks in Virginia Demographic Trends in Historical Context
    APRIL 2012 Blacks in Virginia Demographic Trends in Historical Context By Michele P. Claibourn Black Virginians have shaped the history of the commonwealth – beginning in Jamestown in 1619 with “twenty and odd” Africans,1 through six regiments of the U.S. Colored Infantry at General Lee’s Appomattox surrender, and up to and beyond Governor L. Douglas Wilder, the first black governor elected in the nation since Reconstruction. The relationship between the Commonwealth’s past, and the future for black Virginians, is illuminated in geographic and demographic trends, examined in this report. This report begins by tracing the geographic distribution of blacks across Virginia over time, as well as the contemporary distribution of blacks within Virginia’s metropolitan neighborhoods, which bears a clear relation to the Antebellum era. Next, education, a key focus of the fight for Civil Rights, is analyzed. Finally, improvements in educational attainment are compared to changes in the economic outcomes experienced by Virginia’s black population. Blacks are the largest racial minority in Virginia. According to the 2010 Census, more than 1.5 million, or one in five Virginians is “Black or African American.” This proportion has been quite stable since 1970, as shown in Figure 1, which presents the percent of Virginia’s population by racial groups across time. Figure 1 – The Changing Racial Composition in Virginia Demographics & Workforce Group www.coopercenter.org/demographics Weldon Cooper Center, University of Virginia Page | 2 Though blacks accounted for more than 40 percent of Virginia’s population during the post-Civil War Reconstruction Era (1863 – 1877), the proportion fell steadily from 1880 – 1965 during Virginia’s Jim Crow Era.

Before 1952, the Delmarva Peninsula was isolated, and no development of any kind occurred. The population was stable, with no in migration, and the attitudes were rural. The economy was sagging. Then a bridge was built across the Chesapeake Bay, and the peninsula became a recreation resource for the Baltimore and Washington areas. Ocean City and Rehoboth, the major resorts, have grown rapidly since then. In 1964, the opening of the Chesapeake Bay Bridge-Tunnel further accellerated growth. There are presently plans for the development of a National Seashore on Assateague Island, home of the Chincoteague ponies, as well as state parks along the Chesapeake Bay, and such facilities as a causeway through the ocean and a residential complex in the Indian River Bay.

The HRBT connects the independent cities of Hampton on the Virginia Peninsula and Norfolk in South Hampton Roads. It is a four‐lane bridge‐tunnel composed of 1.8 miles of trestles, two manmade portal islands, and two tunnels under the Hampton Roads Harbor. The westbound and eastbound roadways each consist of two lanes of traffic. The original HRBT (WB) was opened to bi‐directional traffic in 1957 and connected Route 60 (now I‐64) in Hampton with Route 60 in Norfolk as a toll facility. In 1976, the second HRBT (EB) was opened to eastbound traffic. With construction of the second tunnel, tolls were removed and the original 1957 tunnel now carries Westbound I‐64 traffic from Norfolk to Hampton. Built by the immersed tube method, the tunnel was constructed of 300+/‐ foot long prefabricated tubes that were placed by lay‐barges and joined together in a trench dredged in the bottom of the harbor, and backfilled with earth. The Eastbound Tunnel consists of 21 prefabricated tubes. The Eastbound and Westbound Tunnels are separate structures, each of carries a two‐lane highway.
