A Southern View of Black History?:: us2.campaign-archive2.com/?u=24ff978071728b002d42f...7fe4b
"For example, who has been taught about Wentworth Cheswell -- the first black elected to office in America, in 1768 in New Hampshire? Or the election of Black American Thomas Hercules to office in Pennsylvania in 1793? Or that in Massachusetts, blacks routinely voted in colonial elections? Or that when the Constitution was ratified in Maryland, more Blacks than Whites voted in Baltimore? Such stories are absent from textbooks today."
