- Henry_Moxley abstract "Henry Moxley (1809-1878) was an African-American businessman, religious leader and activist in Buffalo, New York. Born into slavery in Virginia in 1809, Moxley escaped and settled in Buffalo in 1832. He worked at various job and became a barber opening his own shop in 1839. Moxley became a deacon of the A.M.E. Zion church and was a principal organizer the 1843 National Convention of Colored Men which was held in Buffalo. It was reported in the Buffalo Republic newspaper that on October 3, 1850 Henry Moxley was in attendance and elected Vice President, along with others, during a meeting of colored citizens in which resolutions were passed against the Fugitive Slave Act of 1850. In June 1867 Moxley, along with other parents, argued before the School Committee of the Common Council that the segregated and then called \"African school\" on Vine Alley (present day William Street from Broadway to Michigan Avenue ), was poorly equipped and constructed. They also stated that the location caused long travel times for children who didn't live nearby and this violated their rights under the Fourteenth Amendment. Moxley's children were expelled from school following an unsuccessful attempt by he and other African-American families to have their children not segregated to a separate building in the Buffalo school system by enrolling them in two neighborhood schools. Moxley and fellow African-American parents then filed suit against the school superintendent and the School Committee of the Common Council with violating the Civil Rights Act of 1866 but the lawsuit was thrown out in 1868 and Moxley was ordered to pay court costs. Henry Moxley died on December 12, 1878 and the Buffalo school system became integrated in 1881.".
