They were denied jobs, as well as other things that were accessible to whites (such as riding in the back of the bus, not allowed to use public restrooms, etc). Also, they were lyched for no reason, other than being black. They had to fight for everything they did, and everything they had.

∙ 12y agoWhites had to be treated like royalty. Blacks were automatically required to say "yes sir" while acting subservient. This was at its horrible worst in the lynching KKK South (a disgusting series of nazi-like states) but it was practiced U.S. wide. Blacks could not go to white hospitals or doctors, and many died as a result. Long after the civil war, blacks were treated horribly and had to put up with it. I am a white person, born and raised in the South, and know what it was like. My family were not the worst in the sense that they weren't cruel or mean, but my dad was a racist. I never bought the whole racist idea--which to me is Hitlerism, but I still see its ugliness, which horribly stains our nation, when I travel in the South. It's hidden, but it's there.
As someone once said, "You can't legislate morality."
