Where do those figures on black voters come from? We obviously can't know for sure, so I'm guessing exit polling which might not be entirely reliable.
I remember reading that black voters were swinging heavily towards Republicans during the 50s but the Democrats managed to halt it. Then Nixon and Goldwater went Southern Strategy and the black vote went Democratic.
They were solidly Republican until FDR though, as has been pointed out.
