1917 Chester race riot
Race riot in Pennsylvania, United States
The 1917 Chester race riot was a race riot in Chester, Pennsylvania, that took place over four days in July 1917. Racial tensions increased greatly during the World War I industrial boom due to white hostility toward the large influx of southern blacks who moved North as part of the Great Migration. The riot began after a black man walked in a white neighborhood with his girlfriend and bumped into another couple.
