Explanation:

The 1898 Wilmington Riots took place in Wilmington, North Carolina following the events of November 10, 1898, after the Reconstruction. It was the only case in the United States where a city government has overturned, as in it a white supremacist group illegally took power from the elected city government, which belonged to the Fusion Party, a pro-African American political party. State governor Daniel Lindsay Russell and United States President William McKinley were well informed about the case, but did not respond.
