Known as Jim Crow laws, these were struck down by the courts over 50 years ago. There ARE no laws against black people in the South. You are paying attention to rumors without checking for yourself.
Of course it did! People were still pregidous against black people.
Slavery had a huge impact on American society, and it still has. Especially in the South of America was a lot of slavery. Black people were seen as inferior and white people really thought they were not capable of thinking. During the Civil War, the North was against slavery and the South wasn't. Many people died to fight for the abolishment of slavery. Finally slavery was abolished and black people were free. However, blacks were still seen as an inferior race. Also, the difference in the North and South can still be seen in America. As a black person you can often be called the N-word in Southern America.
in late 1947, in south Africa! and it is still happening. what it is is the civil rights in the US: people favored white people more than black. which i think is wrong
The attitude towards black people did not change a lot - although many people believed in equality - but there were extremest groups against blacks which I think balanced it out.
The North and South both still disagreed on slavery . The South however , slowly rejoined the Union . After the Civil War , black people were under segregation . They weren't allowed to do all the same things as white people until 1962 .
You did not provide us with the choices, but at the time of President Kennedy, the south was still very hostile to the idea of black people voting. There were still poll taxes, as well as organized efforts by white supremacists to prevent black voters from exercising their rights.
black people now use their '' previous disadvantage'' rights and its gone on for way too long. Its been 18 years and and BEE still applies, now white people are suffering.
if you dont celebrate that black people are free then people will still think that it is right to hate them and it celebrates all the good things black people did for us.
Yes,people still do gumboot dancing as it is one of the oldest forms of dance in south africa
YES
People can be still infected but it is easily cured now.
Most black people in the South were still slaves, until the Emancipation Proclamation led to their freedom. A few mixed-race black people lived in New Orleans as free men and women, but they were in the vast minority in the South, where life for black people was often difficult. African Americans during the Civil War joined the Northern forces in great numbers. Some northern blacks decided to fight for the Union, and the movie "Glory" is about a regiment of black soldiers, led by their white Colonel Robert Gould Shaw. Northern black people also joined the abolitionist cause to fight for an end to slavery. Northern blacks, while still unable to vote and denied entrance into many occupations, still had a better situation than those who lived in the South. Some northern blacks were educated: they became teachers, craftspeople, and small businessmen (and a few women).It should also be noted that the South had several regiments of black soldiers fighting for them, too.
