John Mitchell, Jr.

John Mitchell, Jr. (July 11, 1863 – December 3, 1929) was an African American businessman, newspaper editor, civil rights activist, and politician in Richmond, Virginia. As editor of the ''Richmond Planet'', he frequently published articles in favor of racial equality. In 1904, he organized a black boycott of the city's segregated trolley system.
He founded and served as president of the Mechanics Savings Bank in the city. He served as a city alderman for two terms, and was active in fraternal and professional organizations. He ran unsuccessfully as a Republican Party candidate for governor in 1921.
==Early life and education==
John Mitchell, Jr. was born a slave in Richmond, Virginia in 1863, shortly before the end of the American Civil War and of slavery.〔(''Born in the Wake of Freedom: John Mitchell, Jr.'' ), Virginia Newspaper Project, Library of Virginia, 1996, accessed 5 February 2013〕 He grew up to become a civic leader and civil rights activist in Richmond's Jackson Ward community. The neighborhood had long had free African Americans, and it became a center of the freedmen's community after the war; it became known as the “Black Wall Street of America.” The black population in the city increased as freedmen migrated there for work and to enjoy a strong black community.
