The Black Codes were written to control Black people slave as well as free. Whites were not subject to these codes that is why they were named "The Black Codes".

**The black codes weren't even created until after slavery was abolished. The black codes were basically created to replace slavery and make Black people in the South subservient again.

Well the Black Codes were used to restrict against the blacks. Example no weapons allowed when a slave, no religious practice, I believe there was the grandfather voting it was if your great grandpa was a citizen or voted before segregation. This allowed the blacks to vote.

Dansko clogs are a fairly new product line, so that might explain why a pair has been hard to track down. If you live in Massachusetts and are near an Express for men or women, they currently carry Dansko products and might have a pair you like.
