Black Codes

if you

want to now it was when the whites would go up to the freed blacks and say" up up down dow left right left right A B enter" and they would suddenly be whipped 20 times.

Certainly! That is what they were designed to do after the Civil War. It restriced the free slaves economic rights, they were not allowed to vote, hold office, serve on a jury or receive a public education.

The Ku Klux Klan Acts of 1870 and 1871 barred the use of force against voters. In the face of the terrorism, voting by African Americans declined.

No. The black codes (later to be known as Jim Crow laws) were regulations designated for freedmen. Under these codes, their economic rights were restricted, they were not allowed to vote, they weren't allowed to hold office or serve on a jury, or have a public education.

The Black Codes were passed to ensure a compliant and subservient slavery system under white rule. The laws removed any rights slaves had to humane treatment by literally giving slave owners the "godlike" decision of life or death over another human . If a slave owner claimed a slave challenged or resisted him, he could use beatings, torture, rape and even murder without any fear of repercussion.

the black code prevented the blacks from participating in elections and also restricted them from certain works. They were codes that mainly Mississippi used in keeping their inferiority. They wanted to let the blacks know that even after the war, they were still going to be low lives. That's why Thaddeus Stevens, would never be compensated with what Lincoln was doing. He said Lincoln was too merciful. Thaddeus would write the Call for Radical Reconstruction where he states that the blacks had equal rights and where supposed to be treated equally. he also wrote that the emancipated blacks should have right to participate in election and that unlike Lincoln, the southern leaders that promoted slavery should be punished. Though before Lincoln was assassinated, he supported and agreed with Steven's point's, he always said Steven was in no position to lay his ideas on the table or carry it out and that him Lincoln being the president was supposed to be in control. Several laws would be passed on after Lincolns death that would eliminate the black codes. The black codes prevented blacks from getting certain jobs and participating in social activities.

The black codes were codes to make you inhuman and inferior to white people for examples: you could not look a white man in the face, if a white man or woman was coming your way you would have to get off the road or side walk and let them pass, you must not leave the plantation with a pass and you had to be back by a certain time, you could not hit a white man, you could not sassy a white women in other words you would have to agree with her and she could slap you and there was nothing you could do if you value your life and this is just a few of these "Black Codes".

It restricted their economic rights, they could not vote, hold office, serve on a jury or receive a public education.

The black codes were an almost horizontal move after slavery. Black had little to no pay, and had restricting laws such as taxes on guns, dogs, and medicine. Blacks also couldn't go out past sunset to prevent them from earning extra pay.

It restricted their economic rights and prevented them from holding office, voting, serving on a jury or receiving a public education.

Young person your question is not a complete sentence and your names or not spelled correctly. But I will answer your question. The two people you are asking about are W.E.B. Dubious and Booker T. Washington. Booker T. Washington want Black to learn a trade and become a asset to white America, in other words white would have to come to us to get things repair are fix or built and later we would apply for equality in other area like schools in eating together and government position. W.E.B. Dubious wanted full equality now he did not want to want he believed that Black America had wanted long enough but he only believed that we had the talented tenth of Black people that was available now for position in government and other high offices. I hope this answer your question.

they mainly restricted their rights but the codes did grant black persons a few more civil rights.

The Black Codes were laws passed on the state and local level mainly in the rural Southern states in the United States to restrict the civil rights and civil liberties of African Americans. While some northern states also passed legislation discriminating against African Americans before the Civil War, the term Black Codes is most commonly associated with legislation passed by Southern states after the Civil War in an attempt to control the labor, movements and activities of African Americans.

Andrew Johnson was president at this point in the Reconstruction, and he allowed things like this to go on because he was a southerner himself, but once congress came back from recess, they impeached him. This was partly because of the Black Codes and partly because of his lienient rules for CSA states to be re- admitted to the union. Congress then passed the 14th and 15th amendments, the Reconstruction act (every state except tenessee in the CSA was to be occupied with troops) and the enforcement acts (made black terrorist groups unconstitiutional). So i guess you could say that congress basically impeached Johnson and passed all these acts and amendments as a response to the Black codes. I hope this answers your question!!

They were regulations that were created for the freedmen after the civil war. They restricted their economic rights, they were not allowed to vote or hold office, and they could not receive a public education.

The purpose of the black codes were to keep black people from voting. The result was the 15th Amendment to the Constitution of the United States which prohibited using race as a reason to prevent people from voting.

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.

They were regulations created for the freedmen (slaves that were set free). They restricted their economic rights, they couldn't vote or hold office and they could not receive a public education.
