There is so much history in Wilmington. The first black newspaper was around the corner on 7th street. There is also a little museum on the main street leaving town around 8th street that documents the Wilmington massacre. I'm ashamed to say I knew nothing about til I lived there in 2012. Hubby and I walked all over that area so much history.
