A) Jim Crow was the name of the racial caste system which operated primarily, but not exclusively in southern and border states, between 1877 and the mid-1960s. Jim Crow was more than a series of rigid anti-Black laws. It was a way of life. Under Jim Crow, African Americans were relegated to the status of second class citizens. Jim Crow represented the legitimization of anti-Black racism. Many Christian ministers and theologians taught that Whites were the Chosen people, Blacks were cursed to be servants, and God supported racial segregation. Under Jim Crow, African Americans were relegated to the status of second class citizens.
B)Jim Crow laws made the blacks separated from the whites such as toilets, restaurants, public transports, business, no shaking of hands with the whites, no showing public affection and so on.
C)This type of segregation led to fierce civil rights struggles, especially in regards to Jim CrowLaws that segregated schools. Several key events – including Rosa Parks’s refusal to move from her seat on a segregated bus, as well as several bus boycotts – built up and provided enough tension in society that the question of segregation finally had to be dealt with.
D) Blacks and Whites go to different churches.
Nice blog, very detailed.
ReplyDeleteNot bad, better than mine, better than Yi Fan's. Although your blog is not the best one, but at least you done the work by yourself. You like black? If not, I recommend you to change the background into a colourful background as it looks nicer.
