Comments
“Vacation in lovely Siloam Springs! No Malaria, No
Mosquitos, No Negroes!”
-advertisement c. 1900
In the 1970s, Siloam Springs had a sign saying
“No Niggers or Indians Allowed”.
Although it now had a college, Siloam Springs
had one black family in 1984. The town has since
broken and is no longer sundown. The last KKK rally in
the town had only one marcher.
