1898年威爾明頓大屠殺^[6]是指在該年11月10日，一場因為白人優越主義在威爾明頓發起的大規模暴動和叛亂。^[7]威爾明頓的白人媒體通常將其描述為一次因為黑人引起的種族暴亂（race riot（英語：race riot）) 。20世紀末以來的研究認為該事件是一場政變，因為此事件中由一群白人至上主義者通過暴力推翻了正式選舉產生的政府。

政變由該州的白人民主黨人密謀並領導，最終目標是推翻威爾明頓合法選舉產生的種族融合政府。^[1]^[8]^[9]^[10]^[11]^[12]他們將反對派黑人和白人政治領導人驅逐出該市，摧毀了自南北戰爭重建以來黑人公民的財產和企業，包括該市唯一的黑人主導的報紙，並殺害了約60至300多人。^[2]^[3]^[4]^[5] 因此這件事被認為是美國歷史上唯一的此類事件（政變）^[13]^[14]，因為其他在美國重建時期的衝突並沒有導致民選政府被非政府人員所替代。
