Book excerpt: In a time three decades removed from the Civil War, the Reverend J.C. Coleman, author of THE JIM CROW CAR is a black activist traveling the country. He experiences the indignities forced upon his race in every state and witnesses the aftermath of the greatest indignity of all-lynching-murder in its vilest form. His mode of travel is the Jim Crow car, not for the benefit of his own people, but for the benefit of white passengers aghast at the idea of sitting by his side. His goal is to spread the word across the world of the innocence of the murdered, the injustice of denied rights, the dignity and worth of a people whose desire is only the enjoy the rights and opportunities they deserve in the country of which they are citizens. But Reverend Coleman's own voice is not the only voice he provides. We hear those of plaintiffs and defendants in late 19th century legal cases-those seeking to deny and those to grant justice for former slaves, free persons of color, and their descendants. We hear the courageous voice of journalist Ida B. Wells Barnett. But, most of all, we hear the voices of long ago crying for peace and justice.

Book Understanding Jim Crow

    Book Details:
  • Author : David Pilgrim
  • Publisher : PM Press
  • Release : 2015-11-25
  • ISBN : 1629631795
  • Pages : 360 pages

Download or read book Understanding Jim Crow written by David Pilgrim and published by PM Press. This book was released on 2015-11-25 with total page 360 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For many people, especially those who came of age after landmark civil rights legislation was passed, it is difficult to understand what it was like to be an African American living under Jim Crow segregation in the United States. Most young Americans have little or no knowledge about restrictive covenants, literacy tests, poll taxes, lynchings, and other oppressive features of the Jim Crow racial hierarchy. Even those who have some familiarity with the period may initially view racist segregation and injustices as mere relics of a distant, shameful past. A proper understanding of race relations in this country must include a solid knowledge of Jim Crow—how it emerged, what it was like, how it ended, and its impact on the culture. Understanding Jim Crow introduces readers to the Jim Crow Museum of Racist Memorabilia, a collection of more than ten thousand contemptible collectibles that are used to engage visitors in intense and intelligent discussions about race, race relations, and racism. The items are offensive. They were meant to be offensive. The items in the Jim Crow Museum served to dehumanize blacks and legitimized patterns of prejudice, discrimination, and segregation. Using racist objects as teaching tools seems counterintuitive—and, quite frankly, needlessly risky. Many Americans are already apprehensive discussing race relations, especially in settings where their ideas are challenged. The museum and this book exist to help overcome our collective trepidation and reluctance to talk about race. Fully illustrated, and with context provided by the museum’s founder and director David Pilgrim, Understanding Jim Crow is both a grisly tour through America’s past and an auspicious starting point for racial understanding and healing.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Starting in the 1870s, Jim Crow laws began to appear across the South.

Washington and the Tuskegee Institute, racially motivated riots, and the formation of the NAACP.

Book How Free Is Free

    Book Details:
  • Author : Leon F. Litwack
  • Publisher : Harvard University Press
  • Release : 2009-02-27
  • ISBN : 067426164X
  • Pages : 200 pages

Download or read book How Free Is Free written by Leon F. Litwack and published by Harvard University Press. This book was released on 2009-02-27 with total page 200 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1985, a black veteran of the civil rights movement offered a bleak vision of a long and troubled struggle. For more than a century, black southerners learned to live with betrayed expectations, diminishing prospects, and devastated aspirations. Their odyssey includes some of the most appalling examples of terrorism, violence, and dehumanization in the history of this nation. But, as Leon Litwack graphically demonstrates, it is at the same time an odyssey of resilience and resistance defined by day-to-day acts of protest: the fight for justice poignantly recorded in the stories, songs, images, and movements of a people trying to be heard. For black men and women, the question is: how free is free? Despite two major efforts to reconstruct race relations, injustices remain. From the height of Jim Crow to the early twenty-first century, struggles over racism persist despite court decisions and legislation. Few indignities were more pronounced than the World War II denial of basic rights and privileges to those responding to the call to make the world safe for democratic values—values that they themselves did not enjoy. And even the civil rights movement promise to redeem America was frustrated by change that was often more symbolic than real. Although a painful history to confront, Litwack’s book inspires as it probes the enduring story of racial inequality and the ongoing fight for freedom in black America with power and grace.

Book The Era of Jim Crow

    Book Details:
  • Author : Tim McNeese
  • Publisher : Infobase Holdings, Inc
  • Release : 2021-07-01
  • ISBN : 1646938674
  • Pages : 202 pages

Download or read book The Era of Jim Crow written by Tim McNeese and published by Infobase Holdings, Inc. This book was released on 2021-07-01 with total page 202 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For a hundred years after the end of the Civil War, a quarter of all Americans lived under a system of legalized segregation called Jim Crow. Together with its rigidly enforced canon of racial "etiquette," these rules governed nearly every aspect of life—and outlined draconian punishments for infractions. The purpose of Jim Crow was to keep African Americans subjugated at a level as close as possible to their former slave status. Exceeding even South Africa's notorious apartheid in the humiliation, degradation, and suffering it brought, Jim Crow left scars on the American psyche that are still felt today. The Era of Jim Crow examines and explains Jim Crow from its beginnings to its end: how it came into being, how it was lived, how it was justified, and how, at long last, it was overcome only a few short decades ago.
