Many employers do not hire African Americans as they do Caucasians. The Africans Americans are also not paid as well.

The white Americans took blacks from Africa. They put them in a boat nude, and shipped them to America as slaves. They separated the blacks from their family. The slave masters did cruel things to these African slaves. This why African-Americans live in the United States. If the Americans never shipped blacks to America, blacks today would be in Africa. Also, this is why we have racism in America.
You have to realize that the Civil War was over just 35 years before. Many who fought in the War were still alive and they still believed that blacks were inferior.Males finally had the right to vote in 1870. Then there the same-but-equal rules which kept the blacks segregated, the whites-only restaurants, riding in the back of the bus rules and many other things like this. Most occurred in the South.And it is still going on today.
Jackie was a brave man whom changed the lives or Americans and the major leagues forever. Today he is still known as the first African-American in history.Jackie was the kind of man who stood up for his rights and was also the proud grandson of a slave worker. He was very confident about himself.
Well, Jackie Robinson was the first African American in the MLB. Without him, African Americans may not be able to be part of the MLB- even today. He also inspired many African Americans to prove that they could do anything white people can.
In theory, African Americans were freed at the end of the American Civil, won by the North. But, unfortunately, racial prejudice still exists today.
There were more african americans than whites in population and in state government
Slavery is illegal in most countries around the world today, but there are still instances of forced labor and human trafficking that can be considered modern forms of slavery. Efforts continue to combat these practices and protect vulnerable populations from exploitation.
Yes
Why don't African Americans become simply Americans. Is there benefit to their self segregation?
Yes, the impact of Frederick Douglass is still felt today. He was a former slave who proved that African-Americans were equally as intelligent and articulate as white people. His impact on African-American pride is still felt today.
Hispanics, African Americans, and native Americans (American "Indians") still do not have the opportunities as persons of European ancestry.
Actually it is still going on today, there isn't a spcific time they started coming to Lousiana
They began to bi*ch about how they were being mistreated. They threatened to start strikes just like little pu**ies would. Ever since the beginning of time have these BLACK mother*ckers whined about how they're being "mistreated"; this did not just start during WWII. They need to learn how to shut the f*ck up and stop complaining about how they were born black. Play the cards you're dealt in life.
yes there is , in some states in the south there is a slavery mentality that oppresses some African-Americans into not moving forward

Yes. In fact, many African-Americans living today have less "African Blood" than African-Americans living 100 years ago.
