Alfred Niger

Alfred Niger (c. 1797—August 25, 1862) was a free African-American activist who lived in Providence, Rhode Island and worked as a barber. Niger was a leading influential figure in the movement for Black suffrage in early 19th century Rhode Island, during the onset of the Dorr Rebellion.

In 1831, William Lloyd Garrison hired Niger to be an agent for The Liberator throughout Rhode Island. Niger was also an agent for Freedom's Journal in Providence.
