  • Historisch afroamerikanische Gemeinden in den Vereinigten Staaten, in verschiedenen Gebieten als "Freedmen's town", "Freedom Towns" oder "All-Black towns" bezeichnet, waren Gemeinden, die von oder für eine überwiegend afroamerikanische Bevölkerung gegründet wurden. Viele dieser Gemeinden wurden von freigelassenen Sklaven gegründet oder bevölkert, entweder während oder nach der Zeit der legalen Sklaverei in den Vereinigten Staaten im 19. Jahrhundert. In Oklahoma gab es vor dem Ende der Rassentrennung Dutzende dieser Gemeinden, da viele afroamerikanische Migranten aus dem Südosten einen Raum fanden, Gemeinden unter ihren eigenen Bedingungen zu gründen. Der bedeutendste dieser Siedler war , der sich erhoffte, dass sich so viele Afroamerikaner auf dem Territorium niederlassen würden, dass es ein von Schwarzen regierter Staat werden würde. In Texas wurden 357 solcher "Freiheitskolonien" ausfindig gemacht und verifiziert. (de)

Many of these municipalities were established or populated by freed slaves either during or after the period of legal slavery in the United States in the 19th century. In Oklahoma before the end of segregation there existed dozens of these communities as many African-American migrants from the Southeast found a space whereby they could establish municipalities on their own terms. Chief among them was Edward P. McCabe, who envisioned so large a number of African-Americans settling in the territory that it would become a Black-governed state. In Texas, 357 such "freedom colonies" have been located and verified. (en)
