This special section has a simple aim: to share an important story with as many North Carolinians as possible.The News & Observer and The Charlotte Observer worked together on the project and supplemental coverage. Both newspapers will extend distribution through other papers and on request.The Wilmington Star-News will also include the section in its editions.The section is built around author and historian Timothy B. Tyson's account of the events that occurred in Wilmington in 1898 and the roots and legacy of those events.Because newspapers including The N&O (then called The News and Observer) and The Observer (then the Charlotte Daily Observer) are part of this history, we sought a writer from outside our staffs to tell the story and explore its connections to our own times.If you have questions or comments, please contact:Melanie Sill, executive editorThe News & Observer215 S.

The News & Observer is pleased to be able to offer its users the opportunity to make comments and hold conversations online. However, the interactive nature of the internet makes it impracticable for our staff to monitor each and every posting.
Since The News & Observer does not control user submitted statements, we cannot promise that readers will not occasionally find offensive or inaccurate comments posted on our website. In addition, we remind anyone interested in making an online comment that responsibility for statements posted lies with the person submitting the comment, not The News and Observer.
If you find a comment offensive, clicking on the exclamation icon will flag the comment for review by the administrators, we are counting on the good judgment of all our readers to help us.
