Summary

"Census Statistics of the Negro: A Paper by Walter F. (Walter Francis) Willcox" is a scholarly work that uses census numbers to look at the African American community in the United States in the early 1900s. The paper studies the statistics related to African Americans after the Civil War looking at data like where they lived, how many people there were, jobs, education, how healthy they were, and how these things compared to white Americans, also touching on mixed-race backgrounds, where African Americans were moving, and how they were getting educated, painting a picture of the changes and struggles faced by Black communities in a data-driven way.
