The town of Buxton, IA was seen as a utopia by many Black Americans who migrated to the town to work at the coal miners. Black and white families lived, worked and played together and their children went to the same schools. White residents included immigrants from Sweden and elsewhere, and they existed peacefully with the African-Americans throughout the community’s history.
Buxton was the town that supported African-American doctors, lawyers and other professionals, with everything integrated in the town, black people in Buxton were shield from all the atrocities that other blacks were facing during the Jim Crow and segregation era. They were living in a utopia world.
