How did African Americans face prejudice?

Answer 1

Yes, African Americans faced all three.

African Americans had to eat, sit, drink, learn, etc..., in different places then Whites. They had crosses burned into their lawns and their windows busted out with flamming torches.

Answer 2

From the day the whites landed upon this land up through today, the Indian has faced bigotry, segregation, and extreme injustice. They have been annihilated, their lands stolen as well as their children. In parts of this country, there is still a great deal of racism towards the Native American. Perhaps, now the biggest hurdle for the Native American to overcome is the stereotyping that abounds regarding their culture. The good news, however, is that more Native Americans are writing their own histories and these books are carried in major bookstores everywhere. Also, Native Americans everywhere are learning that they can control their own destinies and histories. They are using the lessons of the past to go forward in the future.
