slavery largely disappeared fro the North by the 1830s.However, racial prejudice and discrimination. For example New York no longer required white men to own property in order to vote . However, few African Americans were allowed to vote. Rhode Island and Pennsylvania ped laws to keep free African Americans from voting . Most communities would not allow free African Americans to attend public schools. Many communities barred them from public facilities as well. Often African American Americans schools and hospitals. A few African Americans rose in the business world. Henry Boyd owned a furniture manufacturing company in Cincinnati , Ohio. In 1827 Samuel Cornish and John B. Russwurm founded Freedom's Journal, the first African American newspaper, in New York City. In �1845 Macon B.
