Deriving its name after a British statesmen who was a leader in abolishing the slavery, Wilberforce is a community in Greene County southwest of Xenia with a population of around 2,270 people. In 1856, after Wilberforce College was established there, the community also took on the same name. It served as an important stopping point for refugees escaping slavery on the Underground Railroad before the American Civil War ensued. It had seven such stopping stations.
The Ohio Historical Society runs the National Afro-American Museum and Cultural Center, which is in Wilberforce. It displays exhibits and learning opportunities for the regional community. The Association of African American Museums, also located in Wilberforce and funded by the private university, works to build professional capacity among smaller museums. Wilberforce has two historically black colleges, Wilberforce University (along with Payne Theological Seminary), and Central State University.
Wilberforce University was set up privately in 1856 as a joint project by the Methodist Episcopal Church of Cincinnati and African Methodist Episcopal Church. In 1863, the AME Church sold another property in order to buy the college after its temporary closing because of financial problems during the war. It is the first college to be owned and operated by African Americans. For many years, Bishop Daniel Payne, who led the founding and later purchase of the college, was its first president. A slew of prominent scholars have taught classes there.
