Killing of Henry Marrow
Henry Dortress Marrow, Junior (January 7, 1947 – May 12, 1970), called Dickie by his friends and family, was 23 when he was killed in Oxford, North Carolina on May 11, 1970. A black man in a largely segregated community, Marrow was beaten and shot by whites outside a local store. The white proprietor and one of his sons were brought to trial on a charge of murder. Their acquittal by an all-white jury spurred rioting and arson in Oxford. The black community too on more ordered protest, conducting what became an 18-month boycott of white businesses that ended after the town agreed to end segregation of public facilities. The events in Oxford influenced the broader Civil Rights movement throughout the United States.
==Background==
Henry "Dickie" Marrow was born to Henry D. Marrow, Sr. and Ivey Hunt Marrow on January 7, 1947. His parents separated early on, and, when Henry, Sr. died in a violent quarrel, Ivey Marrow could not provide for her son alone. As his mother was working in New Jersey, Marrow lived with his mother's parents in Oxford during his childhood. He moved in with the Chavis family during his adolescence while he attended Mary Potter High School. After his graduation, Marrow, Jr. attended Kittrell College for about a year.
At the age of 19, Henry Marrow, Jr. joined the military and was stationed in Fort Bragg in the same state. Marrow did not like Army life and was unwilling to fight in Vietnam. He often went back home, making the three-hour trip sometimes to see Willie Mae Sidney, whom he would later marry.〔Tyson, 2004, pp.119-120〕 A 1978 article in ''The New York Times'' characterized Marrow as a Vietnam veteran. According to Tyson, Marrow did not serve there.〔 After Marrow was discharged from the Army, he moved back to Oxford.〔Tyson, 2004, pp.119-120〕
He started working at Umstead Hospital in Butner. He and Willie May Sidney had two daughters together. She was pregnant with a third child when he was killed in 1970.
Despite passage of federal civil rights legislation, Oxford in 1970 was still largely a segregated community. Robert Teel, a white man, owned a local store. At this time in 1970, he was being boycotted by the local black community after beating a local black schoolteacher, who had gotten into an argument with his wife. Teel had a criminal record and connections to the KKK.〔
