In the nineteenth century
a number of small black businesses flourished in the county. Today
the only major black businesses around in the county are J.D.'s Health
Club, and a Chiropractic and Acupuncture practice owned and operated
by Dr. James D. Williams in Mattoon. In Charleston, Dr. William Houseworth
owns and manages an Obstetrics and Gynecological practice. Since their
first appearance in Coles County, African Americans have tried in
various ways to contribute to the social, political and economic life
of the county. In spite of some difficult times and situations, it
is without doubt that they came, they saw and they conquered. On the
whole the exhibition highlighted the history, culture and experiences
of African Americans in the region. Above all, the exhibition paid
tribute to the enduring history of African Americans in Coles County.
