This list of African American Historic Places in South Carolina was originally based on a report by the South Carolina Department of Archives & History through its South Carolina African American Heritage Commission. The first edition was originally based on the work of student interns from South Carolina State University[1] or the 2021 update.[2]
Some of these sites are on the National Register of Historic Places (NR) as independent sites or as a contributing property (CP) of a historic district. Several of the sites are National Historic Landmarks (NRL). Others have South Carolina historical markers (HM). The citation on historical markers is given in the reference. The location listed is the nearest community to the site. More precise locations are given in the reference.
These listings illustrate some of the history and contributions of African Americans in South Carolina.
