Franklin D. Roosevelt took several key actions to address segregation during his presidency, though his efforts were often cautious due to political considerations. He established the Fair Employment Practices Committee (FEPC) in 1941 to combat racial discrimination in defense industries and government jobs. While he did not fully support comprehensive civil rights legislation, his administration made strides in promoting opportunities for African Americans, especially during World War II. However, significant legislative changes to end segregation would come later, particularly during the Civil Rights Movement of the 1950s and 1960s.

How did white southerners take away African Americans' right to vote and adopt Jim Crow segregation laws at the end of the nineteenth century?
White southerners implemented a series of discriminatory practices to disenfranchise African Americans and enforce Jim Crow segregation laws after the Reconstruction era. They introduced literacy tests, poll taxes, and understanding clauses, which were designed to circumvent the 15th Amendment and effectively disenfranchise black voters. Additionally, violence and intimidation from groups like the Ku Klux Klan further suppressed African American participation in elections. These measures institutionalized racial segregation and inequality throughout the South.
