Greeks in Omaha, Nebraska : ウィキペディア英語版 | Greeks in Omaha, Nebraska
The community of Greeks in Omaha, Nebraska has a history that extends back to the 1880s. After they originally moved to the city following work with the railroads, the community quickly grew and founded a substantial neighborhood in South Omaha that was colloquially referred to as "Greek Town." The community was replete with Greek bakers, barbers, grocers and cafes. After a 1909 mob attack on the community, Greek immigrants fled from Omaha. Today even though the Greek-American community is smaller than it was in 1909, it includes many prominent doctors, lawyers, pharmacists, business people and others who have achieved great success here. It currently maintains two Greek Orthodox Churches.〔("Racial Tensions in Nebraska in the 1920s" ), NebraskaStudies.org. Retrieved 12/30/07.〕 == History ==
