Today we will be taking a tour through history. Our first stop on our tour through the Jim Crow website will be the map of the United States. This website is very good because it had much information about Jim Crow that I did not learn in history class. There is a famous case in the Jim Crow period, Plessy vs. Ferguson. Plessy, board a train, whereupon he was quickly arrested for sitting in a car reserved for whites. However, the Supreme Court decided that black and white can separate, but equal. In my opinion, the result is unusual because how it separate but equal. It’s a ridiculous decision that Supreme Court made. Moreover, in 1890, some state began to avoid black to registration. They perform the grandfather clause, poll tax and literacy test. I saw it was an important part that I learned.
Today we will be taking a tour threw the Jim Crow Law. Jim Crow is a very interesting law. One thing that i experiences while reading this is law is the Plessy vs. Ferguson case in 1896. This Case was about schools for the black people. The Jim Crow law wanted all the schools to be equal but they had to be seperated. It was always hard for black people to do anything becuase they bearly had rights. They also wanted a education becuase without an education you can't do pretty much nothing or have a really good job. That's why the Jim Crow law helped black people to succeeding in an education and that really benefited they're life.
1. FDR was concerned about losing the support of a Philip Randolph for the war effort therefore; he signed this order as Mr.. Randolph and others were planning a march on Washington in 1941. I think Randolph should of thought of the other people before he decided to sign the order, he could’ve hear what they wanted to do instead of thinking on his self.
2. Bayard Rusin was arrested in North Carolina and served three weeks on chains gang, his account of his experience; this was published in the newspapers. I think that is not right they always want to take someone’s freedom away from people that is trying to accomplish something in the world.
3. Ms. Wells was sitting on the white side of the train and the conductor told her to get up and she refused to do this because she was in the white ladies car, the conductor tried to remove her by force, she bit him. Eventually, other was summoned to the scene, and she was removed from the train. The white passengers cheered her removal from the train. Ms. Wells used her paper – The free speech and Highlight – to attack the civil of lynching. She was told never to return to Memphis or her life would be in danger. I think this is ready wrong because they didn’t have to do that they could of told her to sit somewhere else on the train then kicking her off. That was mess up the white people cheered if that were me I would give them the middle finger and keep on trucking on my way off the train.
4. James was a farmer being a patchiest and he thought war was wrong and was against his religion, therefore, when it was his time he didn’t serve in the World War 2. I feel that James was right for doing what he did I would do the same because I would want to get shot trying to be a hero. I think that Jim Crow Law meant equal rights for African American Citizens
Today we will be taking a tour through history. Our first stop on our tour through the Jim Crow website will be the map of the United States. This website was interesting because it had a lot of information about Jim Crow. Jim Crow it's one thing I never learn or heard about it. When I read this website, I know about Jim Crow. In this website, I am interest on the term--Jim Crow. The term Jim Crow is originated in a song performed by Daddy Rice. By 1850s, Jim crow this character had become a standard part of the minstrel show scene in America. On the eve of the Civil War, the Jim Crow idea was one of many stereotypical images of black inferiority in the popular culture of the day. "Jim Crow" this word had became a racial slur synonymous with black, colored, or Negro in the vocabulary of many whites. By the end of the centruy acts of racial discrimination toward blacks were often referred to as Jim Crow lwas and practices.In protest of the law, blacks in the state tested the statute's constitutionality by having a light-skinned African American, Homére Plessy, board a train, whereupon he was quickly arrested for sitting in a car reserved for whites.The Court asserted that Plessy's rights were not denied him because the separate accommodations provided to blacks were equal to those provided whites. It also ruled that "separate but equal" accommodations did not stamp the "colored race with a badge of inferiority. In my opinion, at that time in the U.S. there was hard for the black people to get their equal rights. So I think the Jim Crow help the African to get their equal rights for education, also their life in the America.
Today we'll be taking a tour through history. Our first stop on our tour through the Jim Crow website will be the map of the United States. The map is clearly show that Jim Crow laws were state and local laws, locate in the Southern and Border States of the United States. Subsequently, it not confines in the South and actually spread across the US. It becomes discriminate against other ethnicities. The cases is relate to segregation, civil rights, and disfranchisement. Segregation is casing the society separating in public and private place. Civil rights is instance abridge nonwhite people. Last, Disfranchisement case one citizen not right to vote, to pass to vote by poll taxes and literacy tests. All of those 3 point it case the women and man as socially responsible individuals. African American pursued higher education to save them. Jim Crow law is enacted to support racial segregation in the past. The voting rights act ended discrimination in voting for federal state and elections. Last, it dropped racial segregation. The “Jim Crow” is good histories lesson learned from the past, it would help to guide the right way for our next generation to be equal for everyone and not be happen at the past again.
Today we’ll be taking a tour through the history. The first step is called Jim Crow Laws which played an important role in U.S. history. It encompassed every part of American life, from politics to education to sports. I’ve ever thought Jim Crow was a person. Actually the term Jim Crow originated in a song performed by Daddy Rice. The Jim Crow laws were state and local laws enacted in the Southern and Border States of the United States and enforced between 1876 and 1965. They mandated "separate but equal" status for black Americans. In reality, this led to treatment and accommodations that were almost always inferior to those provided to white Americans. The Jim Crow period or the Jim Crow era refers to the time during which this practice occurred. The most important laws required that public schools, public places and public transportation, like trains and buses, have separate facilities for whites and blacks. African-American children got their first taste of racial discrimination when they found themselves barred from attending school with white children, and being sent, instead, to inferior facilities. Growing up, these children learned that their lives were equally restricted outside the classroom. They were forbidden from sharing a bus seat with a white passenger or to ride in the same compartment of a train. They were denied access to public parks and restaurants, and, in some states, were forced to enter public amusements like the circus through a separate entrance. Black Movie Theater patrons were seated in the balcony, separated from white customers in what was commonly referred to as "Nigger heaven." When they went to work, African Americans were forced to use separate entrances and bathrooms and to collect their paychecks at separate windows. Even in death, legislation ensured that the races would remain separate. Several states prohibited hearses from carrying both races, and cemeteries were required to maintain separate graveyards. The Jim Crow Laws mandated "separate but equal" status for black Americans. However, the fact in the history shows me more separate than equal. They separate white and black, even show black the racial discrimination. That make they live hard and without respect.
It’s a thought accepted by everyone that if all people were identical, the world would be a boring place to live in. However, there are websites that make you think that it would also be a safer, fairer and less violent place to live in. We’ll be looking at one of them today: the website about the Jim Crow Laws. Let’s start by looking at a map of the United States. The interactive map offered on this site helps us see exactly which laws were in effect in certain states. For example, let’s look at Texas. The laws there required that all taxes paid by blacks should go to maintaining schools for African Americans. In Tennessee, intermarriage was prohibited between white people and Blacks or descendants of Black ancestors. Laws in North Carolina said that that public or private hospitals and institutions which admitted colored patients were required to employ colored nurses to care for inmates of their own race. In Virginia, streetcars and trains were required to provide separate but equal compartments to white and colored passengers. The term “Jim Crow” is believed to have originated around 1830. The emergence of segregation in the South began immediately after the Civil War, when the formerly enslaved people acted quickly to establish their own churches and schools separate from whites. Later these schools & colleges became the main centers of resistance. At the same time, most southern states tried to limit the freedom of the formerly enslaved by adopting laws known as Black Codes. These early legal attempts at white-imposed segregation and discrimination were short-lived. As a result African Americans were able to make great progress in building their own institutions, passing civil rights laws, and electing officials to public office. In response to these achievements, southern whites launched a vicious, illegal war against southern blacks. Some states, for example, moved to legally impose segregation on public transportation, especially on trains. Other states also passed so-called miscegenation laws, banning interracial marriages. The only way out for Blacks was to organize self-help institutions, which tried to make a difference as well as served as a protection from White violence. For most southern blacks, Jim Crow was not an easy or acceptable condition for them to tolerate, nor was it always possible for them to avoid whites. For tens of thousands of African Americans, Jim Crow was met with resistance and determination to win back the civil rights that had been stolen from them. By 1905, the issue of how to most effectively deal with Jim Crow came to a debate between Booker T. Washington and W.E.B. Du Bois. Washington believed that accepting segregation for the time being & working hard as well as being a tight community was the only way out; Du Bois believed that Blacks should fight for their constitutional rights. On a day-to-day level, many southern blacks resisted Jim Crow by hoping for the day when they could escape the Jim Crow South - much as their ancestors had used the Underground Railroad to escape slavery by going to the North. It took almost one hundred years of resistance to terror and discrimination to achieve what had been promised to African Americans at the end of the Civil War, and in 1965, the legalized discrimination of Blacks finally ended.
were jim crows laws benifical for african americans? no jim crows laws were not benifical to african americans because they excluded colored people from public parks,swimming pools, hotels, libraries, and theters. this marked blacks lower class because they were not allowed. the blacks could not vote,could not educate there children, could not live in good neighborhoods and lived in ghettos. they also couldnt drink clean water. when the blacks could go to public places they were seperated "white, and black" rooms. people of white and black mixture were concidered to be colored, but they worked with whites. light skinned blaks had to ignor dark sckinned blacks while walking outside to keep their identity safe. the light skinned blacks who were passing as white made more money in their jobs, could send their kids to private school, and could even buy their own home instead of renting.in missori if blacks of one eighth percent married whites the blacks would be arrested for up to two years and would be finned of 100 dolars
Jim crow law were bad for black. it limited the opportunities they had I learned aboutbrown vs educationThere is a famous case in the Jim Crow period, Plessy vs. Ferguson. Plessy board a train whereupon he was quickly arrested for sitting in a car reserved for whites However the Supreme Court decided that black and white can separate but equal. In my opinion the result is unusual because how it separate but equal. Its a ridiculous decision that Supreme Court madeMany people tried to lead or start a movement against the Jim Crow laws. Booker T. Washington believed in non-confrontational protest. He made a book in 1881 sending a message of learning.
In this writing you will be taking a tour with me through the “Jim Crow” Research Tour. In this tour you will hear a variety of different things like what I saw in the pictures and how it affected certain places differently.
Now I will take you through a little history. I have found out that the Jim Crow character was made up by Daddy Rice who covered his face with charcoal to act like a Blackman, then he sang and danced in a silly routine to make fun of a young silly black boy that he had seen in the streets. The term was also generally identified with racist laws and actions the African Americans didn’t like so they defined blacks inferior to whites.
Now I will take you through the affects in health situations it had on each state. Texas in 1952, they established TB hospitals for blacks. This law appeared in Oklahoma in 1949. The people called for a consolidated Negro institution to care for the blind, deaf, and orphans. Louisiana in 1942, they separate but equal accommodations for the races to be provided in old age homes. Arkansas in 1947 they made separate tuberculosis hospitals for Negroes. Missouri in 1952, forbid interracial adoptions. Mississippi in 1942, segregated facilities at state charity hospital and separate entrances at all state hospitals. Kentucky in 1958, all human blood to be used in the state of Louisiana for transfusions to be labeled with the word "Caucasian," "Negroid," or "Mongoloid" so as to clearly indicate the race of the donor. If the blood was not labeled it would be permitted to be used. West Virginia in 1957, Tuberculosis hospital for blacks was discontinued; any person with chronic illness may be admitted. There is more but for now lets move on to some thing a little different like what I saw.
I saw a picture that was toke in Chattanooga, Tennessee it was I picture of wooden houses all pushed together next to a railroad. There were a lot of pebbles and stones all around. In the middle of what looked like a street there was a little boy with holey clothes on this picture made me sad just to look at and see how black people were forced to live.
The Jim Crow website is a great resource to find useful information. There are many facts that fascinate and engorge us with knowledge. It wasn't made only for student's eyes, it was also made so teachers can get ideas for their teaching of these subjects. I'll guide you through the well-constructed Jim Crow Website.
Our journey begins with a small intro to what you would be expecting to learn in the website in general, which was the history of Jim Crow and the struggles African Americans went through because of segregation between 1870s to 1950s. There are 5 links to choose from on the homepage where u can click to see different areas of information.
The first, Television; PBS aired a series in 2002 which was called, "The Rise and Fall of Jim Crow". The title practically speaks for itself! The second link,History, is the main source of information, it provides different links to guide you in the right direction of what you want to know about him. And if you knew nothing about this person, and you visited this website, you would find out that Jim Crow was not an actual person, he was more of an idea that singer, Daddy Rice, created. Jim Crow was a character who symbolized "one of several stereotypical images of black inferiority in the nation's popular culture...".
The next link, Geography, showed a small map of the U.S. and highlighted the 17 different states the Jim Crow laws were used. Those states were located in the South. As you click on every state, a new window pops up to list all the different set of laws for that state. And that's basically what that section's about!
The next section is, American Literature, its the section where it shows the different pieces of literature connected to Jim Crow. Many of the books/stories are well-known literature,and some were even written by Langston Hughes, he was an African American writer and poet who also took part in the Harlem Renaissance. It also suggests different lesson plans for teachers, and how they can incorporate those books and relate them to their lesson.
The last, but not least, section is the Teachers Resources section. This is the section where teachers can inspire and share their ideas with other teachers for they lessons at school. It give the teachers different resources to look at, and it explains what that website is all about. And how they can connect and contribute what they know about Jim crow.These Jim Crow laws really DID make a difference, even though they weren't very successful,"the belief in white superiority and the legacy of segregation and racial discrimination still lives on in the hearts, minds, and actions of many Americans".This website is an excellent site to use to answer the questions that you've been contemplating over such as: Is Jim Crow real?, What ARE the Jim Crow laws?, and How does this relate to today?
Today we'll be taking a tour through history. Our first stop on our tour through the Jim Crow website will be the map of the United States. This could be found under Geography on the links below. As you can see the Jim Crow laws were laws in the southern east side border. The laws were in effect everywhere. So who was Jim Crow? Let’s click on the links on top that say history and then on creating in –depth. As you can see the history behind naming laws Jim Crow as you can see was because a character interoperated by Thomas "Daddy" Rice. Rice had put charcoal on his face and dance and sing to this song "Jump Jim Crow". People say he was inspired by a crippled elderly black man in the south who sang that song. This character became widely known, therefore, everything about an African American referred back to Jim Crow, specially the laws. Now to the next link on our sidebar links. Umm yes sir you in the back? (Guy in the back): “Umm yeah how did this affect all colored people? Good question this link will answer. In 1896 Plessy vs. Ferguson made so that the African Americans in the south were on their own with the Jim Crow laws. Many people tried to lead or start a movement against the Jim Crow laws. Example Booker T. Washington who believed in non-confrontational protest. He made a book in 1881 sending a message of learning. On the other hand Du Bois believed you had to confront. Whitney M. Young Jr. believed that the White American community could work with the African American community for this movement against the Jim Crow laws. Phillip Rudolf believed in standing for what he believed that he told President Roosevelt about doing a march in Washington in 1941. In fear of this march Roosevelt sign an order ending discrimination in power plants as requested. Phillip was helped by Bayard Rustin in the 1941 march. The injustices of Jim Crow were strong. Another event during this time period was the testing of no arrest on and equal train. It was a law by the court of supremacy that any color could sit anywhere on the train. It was proven wrong. An example was Ida B. Wells who was ask to move to the color section when she was on the women section. She denied and she bit the conductor. She was arrested. You can learn more details in a fun way on Jim Crow website's simulation which is on the teacher’s resources link on the sidebar. All you see on the history of Jim Crow was presented on programs on PBS. As you can conclude from this the Jim Crow laws affected colored people in every aspect of life!! I want you all to imagine not being able to seat where you want. You can’t talk to the white Americans and every politics is against you. All the segregation!! This ends the tour for today. If you would go to teacher’s resources and go to the sidebar and click simulations and take fun quizzes and games to learn more. You never know what you'll learn tomorrow!!! So if you’ll please exit on your top right. Yes sir the red X. Make sure to watch out for that pop-out!!! Guess he won a vacation to the Bahamas!! Well until next time!!!
Welcome ladies and gentlemen I am Marva Austin and I am going to take to on a tour called The Rise and fall based on the Jim Crow laws. Follow me and we will get started. First if any body doesn’t know that Jim Crow was a set of laws and social customs requiring racial segregation. It is, in passing in the Mississippi separate car law, declared it constitutional, and announced that the state of Mississippi has the undoubted right to compel to blacks to occupy separate cars from whites if it desired to do so. Can anybody answer this question if you answer it correctly I will give you a lollypop. Which states were blacks the majority population? Yes what’s your name? My name is Marget and I know the answer, the answer is Mississippi and South Carolina. Yes that correct. Can anybody answer this question? Which U.S president issued an executive order to desegregated the armed forces? Yes what’s your name? My name is Jason and I know the answer, the answer is Harry S. Truman. Yes that’s correct. Excuse me Marva do I get a sucker too. Yes here catch, nice catch. Nice throw and thank you. As we continue here’s the Supreme Court, in its landmark 1954 decision in the case now commonly known as “Brown v. Board of Education made the finding racially segregated public schools were unconstitutional. Next as we move over to the left here’s Marian Anderson, now she was African-American singer gave a concert on the steps of the Lincoln Memorial in 1939 because the daughter of the American Revolution barred her from performing in Constitution Hall. There are two types of segregation de facto and de jure the difference is that segregation was developed by custom vs. segregation mandated by law. Next as we move to the right here’s the lyrics to Billy Holiday plastered on the wall called “Strange fruit.” The meaning to this song is the word lunching. So I want you to close your eyes and imagine that what you see from what you hear in this song. “Southern trees bear strange fruit. Blood on the leaves and blood at the root. Black bodies swinging in the southern breeze, strange fruit hanging that the whites did to the blacks.” Now open them what did you see? Down here to the left is W.E.B. Du Bois he was the founder and the first and I mean the first editor of NAACP’S monthly magazine. Between the years of 1870 to 1900 there were no African Americans elected. Down here to the right we have George C. Wallace was governor uttered this here fateful word here on this wall that stand before you this was posted here in 1963 it says “ I draw the line in the dust and toss the gauntlet before the feet of tyranny and I say segregation Now, segregation Tomorrow, segregation Forever.” As he said that he died right then and there. Someone said did he really die. I said no I’m just messing with you and this comes to the end on The Rise and fall tour you guys been a great audience, if you want to know more just look up Jim crow laws on your computer screen and there’s all you need to know and MORE. Please exit to your left Thank you.
The Jim Crow Laws are a beneficial to African Americans hell yes more then ever if we didn’t people like Dr. Martin Luther King Jr, and Malcolm x and other African Americans taking a stand and what they believe in and making a change even though it was hard but that over come freedom for all African Americans. If it weren’t for them where would we be?
Good afternoon ladies and gentlemen. Today we will be tourning The History of Jim Crow Website. A site were you can kick back, relax and explore the complex African-American experience of segregation from the 1870s through the 1950s. Shall we get started? Towards the bottom of the page, there are 6 links you may choose from that take you to different categories of information. The first is the television page. This page brings you to an "overview" page, which tells you a brief history, stating the original reasons this interesting site was created, information about honorable awards, and useful contact information for tapes used for educational purposes. There are also more links towards the upper left hand side of the page, that may bring you to other areas of interest. At the top of the page, there is a navigation bar identical to the one on the main page, where you can go to the next link, "History". This will bring you to "From Terror to Triumph". This section is a typically a good place to begin to access historical background, source material, and lesson plans. There are also 9 other sublinks to the lefthand side of the page. The next link "Geography", shows a small map of the United States which differentiates those laws designed to disfranchise African Americans and segregate them from whites in the schools and public places of the American South and those who aren't in red and greenish brown color. Also, if you click on a state another page will pop up which tells more information about the selected state. As the other pages have, there are many links to the left of the page which get more into detail with facts mentioned on the main page. The next link speaks of, "American Literature". It Is loaded with lesson plans such as "The Color Purple: A Unit Plan", and "Understanding History Through the Literary Reviews of Invisible Man". At the bottom of the page, there is a list of site recommended for their quality and resource values for students and teachers alike. The very last link on the navigation bar, other than "Home", is "Teacher Resources". This particular section offers a selection of classroom resources in social studies, literature and the humanities. Finally, the last link is "Home". This site is a great source for teachers and students. It gives you many ideas you can use to better your classroom. For example, you may ask questions like "Are Jim Crow Laws beneficial to Afican Americans?", then direct students to reseach the site to find their answer. A student may reply they think that the Jim Crow laws were beneficial, but only later in life for African Americans. "Seperate but equal" was not so equal, and in reality, treatment and accommodations that were inferior to those provided to white Americans the majority of the time. They may also be inspired by the map on the geography page to add that some states like Louisiana, that had 33 laws passed between 1868 and 1960 while others only had 12 passed through 1865 to 1957 like West Virginia.In 1952, a law passed which prohibited marriage between whites and persons of color, the penalty was up to $1,000 and/or five years imprisonment in Louisiana. In 1955, a similar law was passed were White persons prohibited from marrying Negroes, penalty Up to $100 and/or up to one year imprisonment. Your students might even come up with their own questions as why are there such differences in these two laws? This site can be used for many things, I hope you enjoyed this tour. Thank you for your time and cooperation folks. Have a lovely night.

Today we would be taking a tour back to the future where the Jim Crow laws ocurred. Our first stop is at a local restrooms back in the days. Everything look normal right? But its not as you see. There is seperate bathrooms and not talking about seperate from boys from girls. These bathrooms seperated blacks from whites. That was one of the jim crow laws. I bet the white bathrooms was cleaner and bigger than blacks bathrooms. I felt outraged after i read this in the Jim Crow website. the website is a good one. It tells you all about the jim crow laws. it has maps where the jim crow laws ocurred. it has games. well back to the tour our next area is where the jim crow laws were almost stopped. But the jim crow laws only was stopped in certain areas. it almost was a sweet victory for blacks but it was foiled. But what people dont know the jim crow laws dont know the jim crow laws wasnt only assigned to blacks. It was also for asians and native americans. the jim crow laws was mostly in western states.Also even if whites broke one of the jim crow laws no if anybody broke the any of the jim crow laws they would get up to 10 years in prison. Not jail but prison. Thats way too cruel just for breaking a law. What happend to getting a bill. thats how serious the jim crow laws was.The jim crow laws was so strict it didnt try to allow blacks and whites in the same room. the jim crow laws didnt allow interacial marriages. My teacher made us answer tjis questions ....Why was the jim crow beneficial for african americans? i think the jim crow laws wasnt beneficial blacks because it segregated blacks.
Today we’ll be talking a tour through history. Our first stop on our tour trough the Jim Crow website will be the map of the United States. In the map we can see the 50 sates of the U.S. and with states were involved in the Jim Crow Laws. The Jim Crow Lows origined around 1830 and some historical believe that Jim Crow owned the slaves that inspired the Rice’s Act. When the Jim Crow Laws were making the two terms that deal with it were oppression and discrimination. Jim Crow showed images of the black inferiority in the nation popular culture. It become a racial synonymous with black, colored, or negro in the vocabulary of many whites. Separate the races in publics spaces (publics school, parks, accommodations, and transportations) was one of the objectives of the Jim Crow Laws. Another objective was to prevent black males from exercising the right to vote. The Jim Crow Laws were met with the resistance and determination to win back the civil rights. For me the Jim Crow Laws were laws with two faces because in one side they seem to help and be fair with black people, but the other side was with discrimination, racism, and with the goal of make the life hard and impossible to the blacks.
Today we'll be taking a tour through history. Our first stop on our tour through the Jim Crow website will be the map of the United States. The map is clearly show that Jim Crow laws were state and local laws, locate in the Southern and Border States of the United States. Subsequently, it not confines in the South and actually spread across the US. It becomes discriminate against other ethnicities. The cases is relate to segregation, civil rights, and disfranchisement. Segregation is casing the society separating in public and private place. Civil rights is instance abridge nonwhite people. Last, Disfranchisement case one citizen not right to vote, to pass to vote by poll taxes and literacy tests. All of those 3 point it case the women and man as socially responsible individuals. African American pursued higher education to save them. Jim Crow law is enacted to support racial segregation in the past. The voting rights act ended discrimination in voting for federal state and elections. Last, it dropped racial segregation. The “Jim Crow” is good histories lesson learned from the past, it would help to guide the right way for our next generation to be equal for everyone and not be happen at the past again.
Today we will be taking a tour through history. Our first stop on our tour through the Jim Crow website will be the map of the United States.Let’s start by looking at a map of the United States. The interactive map offered on this site helps us see exactly which laws were in effect in certain states. For example, let’s look at Texas The laws there required that all taxes paid by blacks should go to maintaining schools for African Americans.In Virginia, streetcars and trains were required to provide separate but equal compartments to white and colored passengers.These laws were different in every state some states even got laws before other states. This laws are known as the Jim Crow laws they are refer to them as the black codes. The term “Jim Crow” is believed to have originated around 1830. The emergence of segregation in the South began immediately after the Civil War, when the formerly enslaved people acted quickly to establish their own churches and schools separate from whites. Now we will talk about how these laws was benefited colored people. During Reconstruction, Black Americans began to gain some freedoms that were previously unknown to them as slaves. However, in the 1890s racial tensions began to flare once again. White Americans in the North and South became less supportive of civil rights.The South, as well as the North, was forced to integrate all public institutions.These laws benefited colored people in many was help better there education and also helped them gain ther equal rights.It took them almost a hundred years for the discrimnation to end and it finally ended thanks to the Jim Crow laws. Thanks for coming on the tour with me we have come to the end of the tour. You can go to the teacher resoures page to play games and quizzes. This web site is very interesting and it will teach you alot.
Today we will be taking a tour through history. We will start with the Jim Crow Website. A very good place to search about the Jim Crow Laws. These made segregation legal in many states and this law wasn’t very beneficial to African Americans. Let’s start at http://www,jimceowhistory.org. This website has many interactive things to do. Like television, history, geography, American literature, and teachers resources. Out of all those choices I choose geography and learned that in •1922 Texas Voting Rights were not accepting any African Americans to vote. In Virginia around 1873 Miscegenation occurred making White persons who married Negroes would be jailed for at least one year, and fined a minimum of $100. Those who performed such ceremonies faced fines of $200, of which one-half would go to the informer. in that same year Arkansas Barred school segregation and refused to provide equal and like accommodations for the education of each and every youth of school age. And in •1947 the same law that occur in Virginia happened in Arkansas. The law said that Sexual relations and marriage between whites and blacks was illegal. Penalty: First conviction $20 to $100, second, $100 minimum and up to 12 months imprisonment, third and subsequent convictions, one to three years imprisonment. This information led me to know that The Jim Crow Law was not beneficial to African Americans. It was a law that made everything worse for most of the African Americans in the south of the United States. But this law did not bring most of these African Americans to a breaking. No, some people did something about this unlawful rule. Take for example Rosa Parks, born in Tuskegee, Alabama, is one of the single-most influential individuals of the Civil Rights Movement whose refusal in 1955 to move to the back of a segregated bus and subsequent arrest triggered the Alabama Bus Boycotts. The boycotts ended only after a successful U.S. Supreme Court ruling that bus segregation was illegal. And there are many more…Ned Cobb, Virginia Durr, Joseph Gelders. And many more in other states like Arkansas, Louisiana, Florida, South and North Carolina. Just to name a few. So even After something very awful, something good has to come of it. And this ladies and gentlemen concludes my Jim Crow History tour!
today we will be taking a tour through Jim crow... before entering i experienced things in life such as back then history then today history especially the horstorical news that have been going on! in the tour today what i learned is south african citizens jim crow laws hated "colored people" they presumed to be phyiscally identifiable and behavionally distinct, were excluded from virtually all public accommodationdo.This exclusion marjed within men & women as subordinate human beings, whose presence within the white would threaten while authority & reinforce appican americans whole status. jim crow & literature is one of the important to me because someday i will like to be narrative writter and jim envioroment is created instrumental roles in a board spectrum of significant american writting from both the 19th&20th centries. As in the color purple aunit plan besides back was television shows such as the historical t.v. shows up to date are THE SUPREME COURT & JUSTICE OF LIFE....what i also dont like about jim crow with the bad stuff that happend black people was cold because on top of that they were already going through slavery!!! This is the end of my jim crow tour, thanks for visting my long message on jim crow.
Today we will be taking a tour through history. Our first stop on our tour through the Jim Crow website will be the map of the United States. This website was very good because it showed a lot of information about Jim Crow that I didn’t know about him. Then when I went to go read about Florida it said that Florida enacted 19 Jim Crow segregation laws between (1865-1967).Then it said black who entered a railroad car reserved for the other race could be sentences to the pillory or whipped 39 times or both.Then when I went South Carolina it said they passed 22 segregation laws between (1865-1957).Six miscegenation laws, six schools segregation laws and four railroads.Then the next place i stop at was the pictures and it had on the picture 9 black african american woman sitting on steps seated like children.Thats why jim crow research was good.(Question)Where jim crow laws beneficial (goods) for african americans? well i said no because in jim crows laws it said colored people couldnt go to whites school to me that was very rude because that was very racism.this all i found in the jim crow research.
In our class we took a look at this website that talks about the laws of segregation, they were called the Jim Crow laws, they are dated as far back as 1830s and 1850s but they didn't start off as laws. Jim crow was the name of a character created by Thomas Rice, and was used in a Minstrel act, it stereotyped African americans.1850 Jim crow became a racial slur synonymous with black people, used by many whites. By the 1900s Jim crow became the name for laws of racial discrimination. These laws were mainly used in the south the website shows a geography map of the U.S states. This website also talked about the African American activists who fought against these laws of unfair treatment, such as Booker T. Washington who wanted African Americans to gain technical so they could function and be successful in American society, also W.E.B Du Bois who helped formed the NAACP which used the courts to bring change for African Americans. Other parts of the website showed American literature witch tells the literature that used the Jim crow laws or talked about African American discrimination and there struggles. Lastly threes a section for the teachers called teachers resources.
When I went to the Jim Crow website one of the things that I liked about it was eth map and obviously the other one were the games, in the map I saw the states of the south like: Texas, Oklahoma, Louisiana, Miami, Mississippi, north and south Carolina, and some more I wanted to see the differences between one and other, the Jim Crow laws and the effect that the laws had in each one of these states today I’m only going to talk about Texas, and north Carolina because they had the same laws but they are far away from each other so we can see the differences. One of the same laws that these two states had in common was Education [Constitution] White and black children shall be taught in separate public schools, "but there shall be no discrimination made in favor of, or to the prejudice of, either race." But we can see that in north Carolina all the students black and white went to the same school with no discrimination and it was in 1875 and in Texas was in 1866 but it said Education [Constitution] All taxes paid by blacks to go to maintaining African schools. Duty of the legislature to "encourage colored schools." So in this state the money from taxes of Africans Americans went right to Africans schools that only were for black students, so like in this one they are different let see another one, Health Care [Statute] Mental hospitals to be segregated by race this was in north Carolina in 1929 some hospitals were segregated, so black and whites could be there but they had to be separated and in Texas Health Care [Statute] Established a state tuberculosis sanitarium for blacks, this was in 1935. We can see that even if the states had the same laws they worked differently and in different years. I think that these laws did make a difference during this time, in some ways like they had more rights after a while and they had more services like health care and education and stuff like that but they were segregated so it they had to suffer too. Like they had to do all the thing separated from the whites so in some way they did and in some they didn’t.
Today we will take a trip through history and learn more about --The Jim Crow Laws. We will first look at a map from jim Crow. this website shoed and told me alot of information that I never new and learned about discrimination and none equal rights. Jim Crow laws were racial segregation laws in the South that were imposed on African Americans. They were similar to Black Codes, which were restrictive laws enforced on newly freed slaves after the Civil War. After the American Civil War most states in the South passed anti-African American legislation. These became known as Jim Crow laws. Theses laws discriminated aginst African Americans. They prevented them from being able to go to school and they had to go to different resturants to eat. The Jim Crow laws came from a man named Homer Plessey, when he rode in an all white rail-road car. It took African Americans a while to adapt to the Jim Crow laws. : At the time of the decision in this case, 17 states and the District of Columbia had segregated public schools. During the 1952-1953 Supreme Court term, five cases, including Brown, challenged the doctrine of "separate but equal" that existed in elementary and high schools. The schools involved were clearly unequal to the white schools. In South Carolina, for instance, the white schools had one teacher for every 28 students and the black schools had one teacher for every 47 students. Additionally, there were differences such as, brick and stucco versus rotting wood and indoor plumbing versus outhouses. This was the Brown vs. Board of Education. The Jim Crow Laws did not benifit for the Frican American sbut for the whites. They got what they wanted, fot they Africans not to get what they deserved, nothing. So no, they laws did not benifit them.
Today i will be taking a tour through the history of the Jim Crow law. The Jim Crow website is a great resource to find useful information. The first stop of our tour will be in the geography section. This portion of the website shows the map of the United States. The Jim Crow law began in the south before spreading across the nation. The map shows an extensive survey of the laws created to exclude African Americans and to create segregation with the white people at public places and at schools in the American South. The next stop of our tour will be the history section. The history of the Jim Crow law stretches from politics to education to sports. Dealing with the Jim Crow law to me, would have been the most difficult task. On the website, there's a link that leads you to a page that explains what people went through dealing with the law. In the 1860's and 1870's many southern blacks preffered segregated schools, especially the all black colleges. Black Americans were left to their own devices for surviving Jim Crow. There's a link on this page that reads the Plessy Vs. Ferguson case that explains the signifigance of the case. The Plessy vs. Ferguson case was an important case during the Jim Crow period. In 1896 there was a case held in the Supreme Court. The Court established a Louisiana law saying segregrated railroad facilities as long as the facilities were equal to eachother. The Court ruled that segregation did not frame discrimination then certifying the "seperate but equal" doctrine that was practiced until the Brown vs. Board dicision in 1954. I think that the Jim Crow law wasn’t beneficial to African Americans because there was racial discrimination towards them.
Good After teacher and students today we will take a tour of a website about the Jim Crow the laws (www.jimcrowhistory.org). This website will help us explore, learn, and understand the effect of the Jim Crow Laws in the United States. The specifics will learn is how the law affected people economically, socially, and politically. We will also learn why the rules were made, who were the rules meant for, and were the rules followed. The main goal of is tour to learn if the Jim Crow laws were beneficial to African Americans. Our first stop or shall I say click on this tour is history. On this tour is the history section here we will click on the link that says Creating Jim Crow: in depth essay. From this we will how they came up with the name Jim Crow which happens to be the name of a song from a play. Jim Crow was one of the many slurs that whites called blacks. But the end of the century the racial discrimination was now referred to as the Jim Crow laws or practice. Our second click is Surviving Jim Crow: in depth essay this section will give us a glimpse of what it was like to live with Jim Crow laws which were created for blacks in the south. These law cause segregation in the south during the time when the laws were made was a great deal of violence. The violence reigned from straight up disrespect to utterly unnecessary lynching. Over three thousand seven hundred black men and women were lynched from 1889 to 1930. I can understand how a group of people could have so much hatred for another group based on skin color (that’s my opinion based from this fact). Then again history show that about most of the white people did dominate and treated the Jews and most minority groups in a very cruel way (my opinion). Our third click is Resisting Jim Crow: in depth essay this section explains the protesting against Jim Crow laws. During this time the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP) came together and it was organization of intergraded people fighting for equal rights. The NAACP also fought legal cases in the Supreme Court. The fourth and last topic in the history section is Escaping Jim Crow some black were leaving there homes and moving to Kansas and Oklahoma. This was known as Kansas Exodus. Thousands of blacks fled the south to get away from the Jim Crow laws. The next topic on our tour is geography on this page you can click on a topic like for example Women and Jim Crow. After that you click on the states and it tells you what the women did to help fight Jim Crow laws. Shirley Graham Du Bois, Gwendolyn Bennett ,Maud Cuney, Hare Gwendolyn Brooks, Gertrude Rush, Grace Abbott Lugenia Burns Hope Daisy Lee Gaston Bates ,Elizabeth Eckford ,Margaret Taylor Goss Burroughs, Alice Dunbar-Nelson Mahalia Jackson ,Ida Bell Wells-Barnett, Katherine Dunham, Nella Larsen ,Katherine Davis Chapman Tillman, Margaret Esse Danner, Ann Allen Shockley, Lucy Wilmot Smith Shirley Graham ,Du Bois Ruby Dee Effie Lee Newsome, Charlotte Forten ,Meta Vaux Warrick Fuller Beatrice M. Murphy, and Ethel Waters are some of those women. Our next topic on this tour is American literature. In this section is a list of books inspired by the Jim Crow. The books are The Color Purple, A Raisin in the Sun, Roll of Thunder Hear My Cry, To Kill a Mockingbird, Beloved, Black Like Me, Understanding History Through the Literary Reviews of Invisible Man, and Zora Neale Hurston: Fighting Jim Crow through the All-Black Community. Another topic for those of you who don’t like reading is the Television section will give you the same information without all the reading. We strongly suggest that everyone go to Teachers Resources to check if you actually learned something. I hope you did learn thank you and come again goodbye.
Today i will be taking a tour threw the Jim Crow Law. This Law is very important to many people. This website is made for students but also teachers and staff so that we all can learn about the Jim Crow Law. Now Lets start looking at the map of the United States. The interactive map showed how the law affected out of each state. For example in Missouri, "Separate free public schools are required for white and Negro children." Also "Provides education for all children as long as white children are sent to separate schools from black children." In Mississippi, "Miscegenation declared a felony. Nullified interracial marriages if parties went to another jurisdiction where such marriages were legal. Also prohibited marriages between persons of the Caucasian race and those persons who had one eighth of more Asian blood." In South Carolina, railroads and steamboat companies to provide separate but equal accommodations for white and black passengers. Did not apply to streetcars. Penalty: A company that failed to enforce this act fined $100 per day, each day, to be recovered in action brought by any passenger on any train or steamboat who has been provided accommodations with a person of a different race." Next what does "Jim Crow" mean? Jim Crow means "The systematic practice of discriminating against and segregating Black people, especially as practiced in the American South from the end of Reconstruction to the mid-20th century." It was Orginated in the 1830's. Now im looking at picture. The pictures shows a little boy dancing. He's singing and there are other people around him singing and playing thier guitar just like him. They are extremely happy. But his clothes had holes and that was sad becuase it showed how African Americans lived. Another picture showed how a African American sitting down on a railroad car and a white and men and woman came behind him making him give up his seat just so that they rest thier legs. In my next Link i went to Teacher Resources and at the top left hand side and click simulations. The first game that i'm going to play is the Simulation game. On that game i scored a 57 which is a F+ but the test was really hard as you would like to know. The test included "Jim Crow: Paths of Resistance". It talked about what made the Jim Crow Law important. Was the Jim Crow Law Beneficial to African Americans? The Jim Crow Law was not beneficial to African Americans becuase it allowed African Americans to be segregated and showed racial discrimination towards them.
Today we will be taking a tour through the Jim Crow website. Our first stop on our tour trough the Jim Crow website will be the truth of the Jim Crow law.The term Jim Crow is originated in a song performed by Daddy Rice a long time ago. This website has very good info because it had much information that alot of people don't know about. Jim Crow is a very interesting law. Some may think it was very negative but some don't realize the truth to it all. The Jim Crow law wanted all the schools to be equal but they had to be seperated in a certain way to avoid dire conflicts. It was hard for black people to do much becuase they bearly had rights. African-American children got their first taste of racial discrimination when they found themselves barred from attending school with white children, and being sent, instead, to inferior facilities. Later in their lives both races realized that they were equally resticted when it came to education. The Jim crow law kinda stopped current conflicts at the time to a minimal. The Jim Crow Law actually helped both races without either realizing until later in their lives.
Good day fellow historians. Today we’ll be taking a tour of the infamous – and unusual Jim Crow Laws. The term Jim Crow originated in Thomas Rice’s 1828 song, “Jump Jim Crow”. Used to associate a rural black person with shabby clothes, Jim Crow thereon become a central character in “blackface” – a new type of theater in which various White Americans applied black paint to themselves to enact racist scenes in Black America. What Jim Crow didn’t know was his influence would extend far beyond theater, leading to real killing and real suffering in the African American community.
Our first stop will be a map of the United States. Upon further inspection, you will notice that a whopping 17 states had laws implemented to further the “separate but equal” Jim Crow ideology. Particularly, the restrictions became stricter the farther you went east. In Florida, intruding on a train car of the opposite race’s category alone could get you locked in a pillory and whipped 39 times. In Kentucky, white and black cohabitation could be punishable to 5 years in prison and a $1,000 fine. That was not the worst bit. The government only had to provide equality from the state. Favoritism or refusing service by businesses or workers was seen as capitalism and ignored. Even the illegal black lynchings often went unreported. How was this equal?
Our next stop is at the history booth. You may wonder, how did segregation itself spread through so much of America? In 1892, a group of concerned African Americans urged Homer Plessy to board a Louisiana train and sit in the white traincar. Being only 1/8th black, if Plessy was arrested, the black activists would have a defense against the government (the train did not distinguish black from colored). However, they lost the case and the famous Plessy vs. Ferguson case would result in 58 more years of racial segregation in the US.
Our last stop will be at the simulation center. Whitney M. Young Jr. was not only a profound civil rights activist, but also a clever and critical thinker. He knew that to improve the situation for Blacks, he must make his actions palatable to whites. Despite criticism from many other black activists, Young worked alongside the white people and headed an orginization called the Urban League. To me his methods and perserverance is inspiring and sets an example for future generations while helping the present.
Thank you for attending our tour. May the stream of knowledge never end!
Today we will be taking a tour through history. There is a famous case in the Jim Crow period, Plessy vs. Ferguson. Plessy, board a train, whereupon he was quickly arrested for sitting in a car reserved for whites. However, the Supreme Court decided that black and white can separate, but equal. African-American children got their first taste of racial discrimination when they found themselves barred from attending school with white children, and being sent, instead, to inferior facilities. Growing up, these children learned that their lives were equally restricted outside the classroom. They were forbidden from sharing a bus seat with a white passenger or to ride in the same compartment of a train. They were denied access to public parks and restaurants, and, in some states, were forced to enter public amusements like the circus through a separate entrance. Black Movie Theater patrons were seated in the balcony, separated from white customers in what was commonly referred to as "Nigger heaven." When they went to work, African Americans were forced to use separate entrances and bathrooms and to collect their paychecks at separate windows. Even in death, legislation ensured that the races would remain separate. Several states prohibited hearses from carrying both races, and cemeteries were required to maintain separate graveyards. The Jim Crow Laws mandated "separate but equal" status for black Americans. However, the fact in the history shows me more separate than equal. They separate white and black, even show black the racial discrimination. That make they live hard and without respect. Ms. Wells was sitting on the white side of the train and the conductor told her to get up and she refused to do this because she was in the white ladies car, the conductor tried to remove her by force, she bit him. Eventually, other was summoned to the scene, and she was removed from the train. The white passengers cheered her removal from the train. Ms. Wells used her paper – The free speech and Highlight – to attack the civil of lynching. She was told never to return to Memphis or her life would be in danger. I think this is ready wrong because they didn’t have to do that they could of told her to sit somewhere else on the train then kicking her off. That was mess up the white people cheered if that were me I would give them the middle finger and keep on trucking on my way off the train. Jim Crow it's one thing I never learn or heard about it. When I read this website, I know about Jim Crow. In this website, I am interest on the term--Jim Crow. The term Jim Crow is originated in a song performed by Daddy Rice. By 1850s, Jim crow this character had become a standard part of the minstrel show scene in America. On the eve of the Civil War, the Jim Crow idea was one of many stereotypical images of black inferiority in the popular culture of the day. "Jim Crow" this word had became a racial slur synonymous with black, colored, or Negro in the vocabulary of many whites. By the end of the centruy acts of racial discrimination toward blacks were often referred to as Jim Crow lwas and practices.In protest of the law, blacks in the state tested the statute's constitutionality by having a light-skinned African American, Homére Plessy, board a train, whereupon he was quickly arrested for sitting in a car reserved for whites.The Court asserted that Plessy's rights were not denied him because the separate accommodations provided to blacks were equal to those provided whites. It also ruled that "separate but equal" accommodations did not stamp the "colored race with a badge of inferiority. In my opinion, at that time in the U.S. there was hard for the black people to get their equal rights. The next section is, American Literature, its the section where it shows the different pieces of literature connected to Jim Crow. Many of the books/stories are well-known literature,and some were even written by Langston Hughes, he was an African American writer and poet who also took part in the Harlem Renaissance. It also suggests different lesson plans for teachers, and how they can incorporate those books and relate them to their lesson.Next what does "Jim Crow" mean? Jim Crow means "The systematic practice of discriminating against and segregating Black people, especially as practiced in the American South from the end of Reconstruction to the mid-20th century." It was Orginated in the 1830's. Now im looking at picture. The pictures shows a little boy dancing. He's singing and there are other people around him singing and playing thier guitar just like him.

It talked about what made the Jim Crow Law important. Was the Jim Crow Law Beneficial to African Americans? The Jim Crow Law was not beneficial to African Americans becuase it allowed African Americans to be segregated and showed racial discrimination towards them.
The Jim Crow laws were state and local laws enacted in the Southern and border states of the United States and enforced between 1876 and 1965. They mandated "separate but equal" status for black Americans. In reality, this led to treatment and housing that were almost always inferior to those provided to white Americans. The most important laws required that public schools, public places and public transportation, like trains and buses, have separate facilities for whites and blacks. State-sponsored school segregation was declared unconstitutional by the Supreme Court of the United States in 1954 in Brown v. Board of Education. Generally, the remaining Jim Crow laws were overruled by the Voting Rights Act. None were in effect at the end of the 1960s. During the Reconstruction period of 1865-76, federal law provided civil rights protection in the South for freedmen—the African-Americans who had formerly been slaves The Supreme Court declared legal public school segregation unconstitutional in 1954, and it ended in practice in the 1970s. Congress to pass the Civil Rights Act which immediately annulled Jim Crow laws that segregated restaurants, hotels and theatres; these facilities immediately dropped racial segregation. These are the southern states the Jim Crow Laws passed through and they all are Quoted. Alabama "All passenger stations in this state operated by any motor transportation company shall have separate waiting rooms or space and separate ticket windows for the white and colored races." Arkansas Various laws from 1884 to 1947 prohibited marriage or relations between whites and blacks or mulattoes, providing for specific fines and imprisonment of up to three years. Various laws from 1891 to 1959 segregated rail travel, streetcars, buses, all public carriers, race tracks, gaming establishments, polling places, washrooms in mines, tuberculosis hospitals, public schools and teachers' colleges. A poll tax was first imposed in the 1890s. Florida "All marriages between a white person and a Negro, or between a white person and a person of Negro descent to the fourth generation inclusive, are hereby forever prohibited." "Any Negro man and white woman, or any white man and Negro woman, who are not married to each other, who shall habitually live in and occupy in the nighttime the same room shall each be punished by imprisonment not exceeding twelve (12) months, or by fine not exceeding five hundred ($500.00) dollars."

North Carolina "Books shall not be interchangeable between the white and colored schools, but shall continue to be used by the race first using them. " "The state librarian is directed to fit up and maintain a separate place for the use of the colored people who may come to the library for the purpose of reading books or periodicals." Oklahoma "The [Conservation] Commission shall have the right to make segregation of the white and colored races as to the exercise of rights of fishing, boating and bathing." "The baths and lockers for the negroes shall be separate from the white race, but may be in the same building." "The Corporation Commission is hereby vested with power and authority to require telephone companies...to maintain separate booths for white and colored patrons when there is a demand for such separate booths.

Texas Twenty-seven Jim Crow laws were passed in the Lone Star state from 1866 to 1958. Some examples include: 1925: Required racially segregated schools. 1950: Separate facilities required for white and black citizens in state parks 1953: Public carriers to be segregated 1958: No child compelled to attend schools that are racially mixed. No desegregation unless approved by election. Governor may close schools where troops used on federal authority. An African American drinks out of a segregated water cooler designated for "colored" patrons in 1939 at a streetcar terminal in Oklahoma City Virginia "Every person...operating...any public hall, theater, opera house, motion picture show or any place of public entertainment or public assemblage which is attended by both white and colored persons, shall separate the white race and the colored race and shall set apart and designate...certain seats therein to be occupied by white persons and a portion thereof, or certain seats therein, to be occupied by colored persons."

If the passenger fails to disclose his race, the conductor and managers, acting in good faith, shall be the sole judges of his race."
Let's take a journey through the Jim Crow website. The first stop in our tour will be the history section. In the history section we find many articles that talk about the initiation of the Jim Crow laws. You may ask yourself what these laws were. The Jim Crow laws were racist laws against the rights of African Americans. They would give the idea that African Americans were inferior to white people. The Jim Crow laws started after the Civil War when slaves wanted to form their own churches and schools, and white people opposed to it. Africans Americans were attacked and killed by secret white’s organizations such as the Ku Klux Klan. Let’s go to the geography section where we will find the map of the United States. In the south of the U.S. slavery existed before the Civil War and it was there where these laws started before they would spread into the whole country. It is surprising to know the kind of laws that existed here in California such as the separation of African American, Chinese and Japanese children from the white kids in schools. Let’s move on to the gallery of the Jim Crow website. Here we find images of the called Lynch law in different states. One of the pictures shows the dead body of an African American in Mississippi. He was burned to death after he was accused of assaulting a white girl. The man denied having something to do with the assault of the girl, but he was lynched anyways. A table from the geography section shows that during the years 1889 to 1918, the total number of lynched people in the U.S. was 3224. Out of those 3224 lynched, 2522 were African Americans. When I read this I felt sad. Clearly these laws affected Africans Americans economically, socially and politically by putting their self esteem down. Imagine yourself being treated bad for the way you look, think or act. The Jim Crow laws made me feel bad for the way African Americans were treated, but I also feel happy to know that there were people that stood up against those laws.

To begin to understand the laws and what they stood for you must first understand its histoy. The term Jim Crow originated in a minstrel act performed by Daddy Rice. This white man adopted this persona of a stereotypical black man after watching an elderly black man and listening to his song. The link on the first page of the 'From Terror to Triumph: Historical Overview' essay labeled Jim Crow will lead you to more information. Further down this essay the word miscegenation appears. many people may not understand what this means but this certain law prevented men and women from interacial mariage.The white supremists even went so far as to deny suffrage rights from african americans. Going back up a few paragraphs you will find info on violence against blacks. Thousands of africans were killed during this period by the nefarious ku klux klan. This gang was formed in response to africans being elected into public office and earning more rights. In the 1860s and 70s blacks were actually grateful that the schools were seperated especially in the all black colleges. These schools gave them a feeling of independence and freedom. The highlighted name W.E.B. Du Bois appears in the next section of the essay and reveals how even in the face of resistence man can achieve. To further deal with the white mans opression blacks would write songs of mockery and even go so far as to sing in front of them.Unfortunately after a while this behavior was expected from africans and labeled the Sambo chaacter. Disturbingly if you were to read alittle farther down about the silent film 'A Birth of a Nation' you will discover truly how racist people were at the time. Africans were depicted as gorilla like being on the floor of congress eating bananas. To fully experience the feeling of wonder you get when you read about the laws you have to look at it yourself.
Today we will be taking a tour through history. Our first stop on our tour through the Jim Crow website will be the Image Gallery. In one picture there is a white man made into a black person.He's wearing a weird outfit and he is acting stupid, he is smacking his butt and fooling around. Theres a picture called "THE TWO PLATFORMS". In the picture the whhite man looks sophisticated and the black man looks stupid like he has no since. In another picture I see a couple of black men waiting in line to vote, but they have to be dressed decent. In the next picture a black man was sitting on a train and a white man was tellind him to get uo so him and his family could sit down.
This is bad for african american because it was seperating the races.
Today we will be taking a tour through the image gallery of jim crow.I went to the website and this is what i found laws that legally seperated blacks and whites. i went to the image gallery and seen a man tapping his butt actin stupid dressed in rags with no shoes but sandels with a wide smile on his face. In another image i saw two people in the two platforms picture one looks like a human one looks like a goblin ones hair is not done one is sad one is happy.A couple of black men in another image is waiten their turn to vote they have to be dressed professionally in order to vote. In this image a black man is sitting on the train and a white man was trying to make him get up just so he and his familt can sit down.
Today we will be takeing a tour through history learning about Jim crow. In the history of Jim Crow in the web site tells that jim crow was like a resemble of black men. After or maybe befor that happend they made a song about "jim crow". Also what the web site tells us that the supreme court decided that the black well be separated from the white and in that time it was hard for the black because they couldint get there rights. they showed where jim crow was and where it got started on the map in the web site. I feel that this was an important lesson to that i learned.
Today we will be taking a tour through history. Our first stop on your tour through Jim Crow website will be Jim Crow's Collection. first image is a fixture of the minstrel shows that toured the South; a white man made up as a black man sang and its like a weird picture to me. Second, in 1873, Negroes hiding in the swamps of Louisiana.Third,African American from a Philadelphia Railway car after the implementation of Jim Crow and I was thinking that this image show that some African American are breaking the law.And the last image is,in Wilmington, North Carolina,it was a first riot after disfranchisement legilation,and 400 white are burned and I realized that is horrible happened and I was thinking that they weren'trespect and everything. All images that I saw is learned me a history and respect other color.
Today we will be takeing a tour through history on Jim Crow. In the web site it tells us that, it as certain types of laws made against black and the south so they couldnt do things. They had brown vs. board of education. It was only the south because the south were confederate states. Also that the jim crow law want the schools to be different but they was seperated and also some of the states was avoiding the black registration. This is what I got out the web site.
Today we will be taking a tour through history on Jim Crow. Jim Crow was the named after the racial caste system. It began 1877 and the mid-1960s which happened in the southern and border states. Jim Crow was a lot more than just a rigid anti-Black law. It was a way of life, everyday things. Under Jim Crow, African Americans were relegated to the status of second class citizens. Jim Crow represented the legitimization of anti-Black racism. Many Christian ministers and theologians taught that Whites were the Chosen people, Blacks were cursed to be servants, and God supported racial segregation. But of course that is not true everybody is born the same. There was really mean and unbelievable laws like A Black male could not offer his hand (to shake hands) with a White male because it implied being socially equal. Obviously, a Black male could not offer his hand or any other part of his body to a White woman, because he risked being accused of rape. Blacks and Whites were not supposed to eat together. If they did eat together, Whites were to be served first, and some sort of partition was to be placed between them. Blacks were not allowed to show public affection toward one another in public, especially kissing, because it offended Whites.
ONE OF THE PICTURES IN THE GALLERY IS OF A WHITE MAN MIMICKING BLACK STEROTYPES, HE HAS PAINTED HISELF BLACK, FOR ENTERAINMENT PURPOSE. TO ME THIS PICTURE SAYS BLACK PEOPLE ARE POOR BECAUSE HE HAS HOLES IN HIS CLOTHS AND IT LOOKS LIKE HE IS DANCEING,AND THAT THEY DID NOT TAKE BLACK PEOPLE SERIOUSLY.
ANOTHOR PICTURE IN THE GALLERY SOHWES A WHITE MAN AND IS PRETTY MUCH COMPARING HIM TO A MONKEY SAYS ALL BLACK PEOPLE HAVE BIG LIPS AND BIG NOISES AND NAPPY HAIRAND UGLY.
ANOTHOR PICTURE IN THE GALLERY HAS A BLACK MAN IN THE MIDDLE OF A GROUP DANCING AND ACTING A FOOL.THEY PRETTY MUCH ARE SAYING BLACK PEOPLE HAVE NO TYPE OF SENCE!
SO PRETTY MUCH THE JIM CROW LAWS ARE LAWS TO KEEP WHITES AND BLACKS APART OR IN OTHOR WORDS SEGGRATED AND LEAGLLY SPREAD THE IDEA THAT WHITES ARE BETTER THAN BLACKS.
Today we'll be taking a tour through history. Our first stop on our tour through the Jim Crow website will be at the Imagery Gallery. This picture shows a black man and a woman who had been stripped of there clothes. The man has been hung and the woman was beat, and now is mourning his death. The second picture shows a white man in a suit looking very sophisticated, while the black man in front of him is not even drawn like a human being. The black man looks like a made up character, with a very large lip, high cheekbones with a wide nose. The last picture ill be talking about is The Rex Theater for Colored People. Blacks and whites couldn't even watch a movie together because of the Jim Crow effect. Our second stop through the Jim Crow website will be at history and then on creating in -depth. This man was believed to be the Jim Crow figure. This man is a character interoperated by Thomas "Daddy" Rice. Rice would Stereotype black people buy painting his face with charcoal and jump around acting stupid, dancing and singing to this song "Jump Jim Crow". Rice became widely known, therefore, everything about an African American referred back to Jim Crow, especially the laws.
The next stop is, American Literature, this is the section where it shows the different pieces of literature connected to Jim Crow. Many of the books/stories are well-known literature, and some were even written by Langston Hughes, he was an African American writer and poet who also took part in the Harlem Renaissance. Under Jim Crow, African Americans were relegated to the status of second-class citizens. Many Christian thought that whites were the chosen people, and blacks were cursed to be servants, and God supported racial segregation. Blacks couldn’t even use the same water fountain as whites neither restroom. The Jim Crow Laws did not benefit for the African American but for the whites. The whites always got what they wanted; The Africans American didn’t get what they deserved. Martin Luther King was killed for what he believed in for trying to make a change in our world today. He was thinking about our future and not dwelling on the past an all it racial differences, He saw better day. Day like today were I could walk on the same side of the street as a white person holding hands. Or days were black and whites could attend the same school an be taught with the same resources of whites.
So I think the Jim Crow help the African to get their equal rights for education, also their life in the America.
The Jim Crow was the name of a racial caste system that operated mostly, but not strongly in southern and border states. The Jim Crow Law period let black people into public places like schools and public transport it made people “segregated but equal”. The law was enforced between 1876 and 1965.The most important laws required that public schools, public places and public transportation, like trains and buses, have separate facilities for whites and blacks etc... Jim Crow represented the legitimization of anti-Black racism. Many Christian ministers and theologians taught that Whites were the Chosen people, Blacks were cursed to be servants, and that God supported racial segregation but that wasn’t the case they were just arrogant, ignorant and, dumb. The jim crow law was harsh I think having to follow all those rules like “Never assert or even intimate that a White person is lying”. “Never impute dishonorable intentions to a White person’. “Never suggest that a White person is from an inferior class”. “Never lay claim to, or overly demonstrate, superior knowledge or intelligence”. “Never curse a White person”. “Never laugh derisively at a White person”. “Never comment upon the appearance of a White female”. The Jim Crow Laws was a polite way for the blacks to respect the whites. Of course the blacks were denied the ability to vote. The blacks were being separate from everything. Jails, bathrooms ,water fountain, doors to walking in and exit ,hospitals. Blacks and whites were prohibited to do anything together im guessing life was safe and calm that way!

The Jim Crow Laws was basically Segregation. This happened between 1870 through the 1950's. Whites had it fair and blacks did now. The whole idea of the Jim Crow laws was to not have interation with the opposite race. Black and white people had seperate drinking fountains, bathroom, they couldn't go to the same park or ride on the same bus for transportation. There was serperate schools that kids would go to, one being white and the other a black school. Also whites and blacks were not aloud to have "interacial marrages", this means they couldn't marry the opposite race. And blacks were not aloud to do the following: “Never impute dishonorable intentions to a White person’. “Never suggest that a White person is from an inferior class”. “Never lay claim to, or overly demonstrate, superior knowledge or intelligence”. “Never curse a White person”. “Never laugh derisively at a White person”. “Never comment upon the appearance of a White female”. Twenty-seven Jim Crow laws were passed in the Lone Star state from 1866 to 1958. Some examples include: 1925: Required racially segregated schools. 1950: Separate facilities required for white and black citizens in state parks 1953: Public carriers to be segregated 1958: No child compelled to attend schools that are racially mixed. No desegregation unless approved by election. Governor may close schools where troops used on federal authority. An African American drinks out of a segregated water cooler designated for "colored" patrons in 1939 at a streetcar terminal in Oklahoma City Virginia. In conclusion This went on for many years. Blacks were treated very unfairly while whites were treated well.
What I have seen on the Jim Crow website was alot of laws that were made some of them caught my eye and some of them did not so...... ill be back to say more...

Today we will be taking a tour through history. Our first stop on our tour through the Jim Crow website will be the map of the United States. This website is very good because it had much information about Jim Crow that I did not learn in history class. There is a famous case in the Jim Crow period, Plessy vs. Ferguson. Plessy, board a train, whereupon he was quickly arrested for sitting in a car reserved for whites. However, the Supreme Court decided that black and white can separate, but equal. In my opinion, the result is unusual because how it separate but equal. It’s a ridiculous decision that Supreme Court made. Moreover, in 1890, some state began to avoid black to registration. They perform the grandfather clause, poll tax and literacy test. I saw it was an important part that I learned.
Today we will be taking a tour threw the Jim Crow Law. Jim Crow is a very interesting law. One thing that i experiences while reading this is law is the Plessy vs. Ferguson case in 1896. This Case was about schools for the black people. The Jim Crow law wanted all the schools to be equal but they had to be seperated. It was always hard for black people to do anything becuase they bearly had rights. They also wanted a education becuase without an education you can't do pretty much nothing or have a really good job. That's why the Jim Crow law helped black people to succeeding in an education and that really benefited they're life.
Jim crow law questions and thoughts
1. FDR was concerned about losing the support of a Philip Randolph for the war effort therefore; he signed this order as Mr.. Randolph and others were planning a march on Washington in 1941. I think Randolph should of thought of the other people before he decided to sign the order, he could’ve hear what they wanted to do instead of thinking on his self.
2. Bayard Rusin was arrested in North Carolina and served three weeks on chains gang, his account of his experience; this was published in the newspapers. I think that is not right they always want to take someone’s freedom away from people that is trying to accomplish something in the world.
3. Ms. Wells was sitting on the white side of the train and the conductor told her to get up and she refused to do this because she was in the white ladies car, the conductor tried to remove her by force, she bit him. Eventually, other was summoned to the scene, and she was removed from the train. The white passengers cheered her removal from the train. Ms. Wells used her paper – The free speech and Highlight – to attack the civil of lynching. She was told never to return to Memphis or her life would be in danger. I think this is ready wrong because they didn’t have to do that they could of told her to sit somewhere else on the train then kicking her off. That was mess up the white people cheered if that were me I would give them the middle finger and keep on trucking on my way off the train.
4. James was a farmer being a patchiest and he thought war was wrong and was against his religion, therefore, when it was his time he didn’t serve in the World War 2. I feel that James was right for doing what he did I would do the same because I would want to get shot trying to be a hero.
I think that Jim Crow Law meant equal rights for African American Citizens
Today we will be taking a tour through history. Our first stop on our tour through the Jim Crow website will be the map of the United States. This website was interesting because it had a lot of information about Jim Crow. Jim Crow it's one thing I never learn or heard about it. When I read this website, I know about Jim Crow. In this website, I am interest on the term--Jim Crow. The term Jim Crow is originated in a song performed by Daddy Rice. By 1850s, Jim crow this character had become a standard part of the minstrel show scene in America. On the eve of the Civil War, the Jim Crow idea was one of many stereotypical images of black inferiority in the popular culture of the day. "Jim Crow" this word had became a racial slur synonymous with black, colored, or Negro in the vocabulary of many whites. By the end of the centruy acts of racial discrimination toward blacks were often referred to as Jim Crow lwas and practices.In protest of the law, blacks in the state tested the statute's constitutionality by having a light-skinned African American, Homére Plessy, board a train, whereupon he was quickly arrested for sitting in a car reserved for whites.The Court asserted that Plessy's rights were not denied him because the separate accommodations provided to blacks were equal to those provided whites. It also ruled that "separate but equal" accommodations did not stamp the "colored race with a badge of inferiority. In my opinion, at that time in the U.S. there was hard for the black people to get their equal rights. So I think the Jim Crow help the African to get their equal rights for education, also their life in the America.
Today we'll be taking a tour through history. Our first stop on our tour through the Jim Crow website will be the map of the United States. The map is clearly show that Jim Crow laws were state and local laws, locate in the Southern and Border States of the United States. Subsequently, it not confines in the South and actually spread across the US. It becomes discriminate against other ethnicities. The cases is relate to segregation, civil rights, and disfranchisement. Segregation is casing the society separating in public and private place. Civil rights is instance abridge nonwhite people. Last, Disfranchisement case one citizen not right to vote, to pass to vote by poll taxes and literacy tests. All of those 3 point it case the women and man as socially responsible individuals. African American pursued higher education to save them. Jim Crow law is enacted to support racial segregation in the past. The voting rights act ended discrimination in voting for federal state and elections. Last, it dropped racial segregation. The “Jim Crow” is good histories lesson learned from the past, it would help to guide the right way for our next generation to be equal for everyone and not be happen at the past again.
Today we’ll be taking a tour through the history. The first step is called Jim Crow Laws which played an important role in U.S. history. It encompassed every part of American life, from politics to education to sports. I’ve ever thought Jim Crow was a person. Actually the term Jim Crow originated in a song performed by Daddy Rice. The Jim Crow laws were state and local laws enacted in the Southern and Border States of the United States and enforced between 1876 and 1965. They mandated "separate but equal" status for black Americans. In reality, this led to treatment and accommodations that were almost always inferior to those provided to white Americans. The Jim Crow period or the Jim Crow era refers to the time during which this practice occurred. The most important laws required that public schools, public places and public transportation, like trains and buses, have separate facilities for whites and blacks.
African-American children got their first taste of racial discrimination when they found themselves barred from attending school with white children, and being sent, instead, to inferior facilities. Growing up, these children learned that their lives were equally restricted outside the classroom. They were forbidden from sharing a bus seat with a white passenger or to ride in the same compartment of a train. They were denied access to public parks and restaurants, and, in some states, were forced to enter public amusements like the circus through a separate entrance. Black Movie Theater patrons were seated in the balcony, separated from white customers in what was commonly referred to as "Nigger heaven." When they went to work, African Americans were forced to use separate entrances and bathrooms and to collect their paychecks at separate windows. Even in death, legislation ensured that the races would remain separate. Several states prohibited hearses from carrying both races, and cemeteries were required to maintain separate graveyards.
The Jim Crow Laws mandated "separate but equal" status for black Americans. However, the fact in the history shows me more separate than equal. They separate white and black, even show black the racial discrimination. That make they live hard and without respect.
It’s a thought accepted by everyone that if all people were identical, the world would be a boring place to live in. However, there are websites that make you think that it would also be a safer, fairer and less violent place to live in. We’ll be looking at one of them today: the website about the Jim Crow Laws.
Let’s start by looking at a map of the United States. The interactive map offered on this site helps us see exactly which laws were in effect in certain states. For example, let’s look at Texas. The laws there required that all taxes paid by blacks should go to maintaining schools for African Americans. In Tennessee, intermarriage was prohibited between white people and Blacks or descendants of Black ancestors. Laws in North Carolina said that that public or private hospitals and institutions which admitted colored patients were required to employ colored nurses to care for inmates of their own race. In Virginia, streetcars and trains were required to provide separate but equal compartments to white and colored passengers.
The term “Jim Crow” is believed to have originated around 1830. The emergence of segregation in the South began immediately after the Civil War, when the formerly enslaved people acted quickly to establish their own churches and schools separate from whites. Later these schools & colleges became the main centers of resistance. At the same time, most southern states tried to limit the freedom of the formerly enslaved by adopting laws known as Black Codes. These early legal attempts at white-imposed segregation and discrimination were short-lived. As a result African Americans were able to make great progress in building their own institutions, passing civil rights laws, and electing officials to public office. In response to these achievements, southern whites launched a vicious, illegal war against southern blacks. Some states, for example, moved to legally impose segregation on public transportation, especially on trains. Other states also passed so-called miscegenation laws, banning interracial marriages. The only way out for Blacks was to organize self-help institutions, which tried to make a difference as well as served as a protection from White violence.
For most southern blacks, Jim Crow was not an easy or acceptable condition for them to tolerate, nor was it always possible for them to avoid whites. For tens of thousands of African Americans, Jim Crow was met with resistance and determination to win back the civil rights that had been stolen from them. By 1905, the issue of how to most effectively deal with Jim Crow came to a debate between Booker T. Washington and W.E.B. Du Bois. Washington believed that accepting segregation for the time being & working hard as well as being a tight community was the only way out; Du Bois believed that Blacks should fight for their constitutional rights. On a day-to-day level, many southern blacks resisted Jim Crow by hoping for the day when they could escape the Jim Crow South - much as their ancestors had used the Underground Railroad to escape slavery by going to the North.
It took almost one hundred years of resistance to terror and discrimination to achieve what had been promised to African Americans at the end of the Civil War, and in 1965, the legalized discrimination of Blacks finally ended.

were jim crows laws benifical for african americans? no jim crows laws were not benifical to african americans because they excluded colored people from public parks,swimming pools, hotels, libraries, and theters. this marked blacks lower class because they were not allowed. the blacks could not vote,could not educate there children, could not live in good neighborhoods and lived in ghettos. they also couldnt drink clean water. when the blacks could go to public places they were seperated "white, and black" rooms. people of white and black mixture were concidered to be colored, but they worked with whites. light skinned blaks had to ignor dark sckinned blacks while walking outside to keep their identity safe. the light skinned blacks who were passing as white made more money in their jobs, could send their kids to private school, and could even buy their own home instead of renting.in missori if blacks of one eighth percent married whites the blacks would be arrested for up to two years and would be finned of 100 dolars
Jim crow law were bad for black. it limited the opportunities they had I learned aboutbrown vs educationThere is a famous case in the Jim Crow period, Plessy vs. Ferguson. Plessy board a train whereupon he was quickly arrested for sitting in a car reserved for whites However the Supreme Court decided that black and white can separate but equal. In my opinion the result is unusual because how it separate but equal. Its a ridiculous decision that Supreme Court madeMany people tried to lead or start a movement against the Jim Crow laws. Booker T. Washington believed in non-confrontational protest. He made a book in 1881 sending a message of learning.
In this writing you will be taking a tour with me through the “Jim Crow” Research Tour. In this tour you will hear a variety of different things like what I saw in the pictures and how it affected certain places differently.
Now I will take you through a little history. I have found out that the Jim Crow character was made up by Daddy Rice who covered his face with charcoal to act like a Blackman, then he sang and danced in a silly routine to make fun of a young silly black boy that he had seen in the streets. The term was also generally identified with racist laws and actions the African Americans didn’t like so they defined blacks inferior to whites.
Now I will take you through the affects in health situations it had on each state. Texas in 1952, they established TB hospitals for blacks. This law appeared in Oklahoma in 1949. The people called for a consolidated Negro institution to care for the blind, deaf, and orphans. Louisiana in 1942, they separate but equal accommodations for the races to be provided in old age homes. Arkansas in 1947 they made separate tuberculosis hospitals for Negroes. Missouri in 1952, forbid interracial adoptions. Mississippi in 1942, segregated facilities at state charity hospital and separate entrances at all state hospitals. Kentucky in 1958, all human blood to be used in the state of Louisiana for transfusions to be labeled with the word "Caucasian," "Negroid," or "Mongoloid" so as to clearly indicate the race of the donor. If the blood was not labeled it would be permitted to be used. West Virginia in 1957, Tuberculosis hospital for blacks was discontinued; any person with chronic illness may be admitted. There is more but for now lets move on to some thing a little different like what I saw.
I saw a picture that was toke in Chattanooga, Tennessee it was I picture of wooden houses all pushed together next to a railroad. There were a lot of pebbles and stones all around. In the middle of what looked like a street there was a little boy with holey clothes on this picture made me sad just to look at and see how black people were forced to live.
The Jim Crow website is a great resource to find useful information. There are many facts that fascinate and engorge us with knowledge. It wasn't made only for student's eyes, it was also made so teachers can get ideas for their teaching of these subjects. I'll guide you through the well-constructed Jim Crow Website.
Our journey begins with a small intro to what you would be expecting to learn in the website in general, which was the history of Jim Crow and the struggles African Americans went through because of segregation between 1870s to 1950s. There are 5 links to choose from on the homepage where u can click to see different areas of information.
The first, Television; PBS aired a series in 2002 which was called, "The Rise and Fall of Jim Crow". The title practically speaks for itself!
The second link,History, is the main source of information, it provides different links to guide you in the right direction of what you want to know about him. And if you knew nothing about this person, and you visited this website, you would find out that Jim Crow was not an actual person, he was more of an idea that singer, Daddy Rice, created. Jim Crow was a character who symbolized "one of several stereotypical images of black inferiority in the nation's popular culture...".
The next link, Geography, showed a small map of the U.S. and highlighted the 17 different states the Jim Crow laws were used. Those states were located in the South. As you click on every state, a new window pops up to list all the different set of laws for that state. And that's basically what that section's about!
The next section is, American Literature, its the section where it shows the different pieces of literature connected to Jim Crow. Many of the books/stories are well-known literature,and some were even written by Langston Hughes, he was an African American writer and poet who also took part in the Harlem Renaissance. It also suggests different lesson plans for teachers, and how they can incorporate those books and relate them to their lesson.
The last, but not least, section is the Teachers Resources section. This is the section where teachers can inspire and share their ideas with other teachers for they lessons at school. It give the teachers different resources to look at, and it explains what that website is all about. And how they can connect and contribute what they know about Jim crow.These Jim Crow laws really DID make a difference, even though they weren't very successful,"the belief in white superiority and the legacy of segregation and racial discrimination still lives on in the hearts, minds, and actions of many Americans".This website is an excellent site to use to answer the questions that you've been contemplating over such as: Is Jim Crow real?, What ARE the Jim Crow laws?, and How does this relate to today?
Today we'll be taking a tour through history. Our first stop on our tour through the Jim Crow website will be the map of the United States. This could be found under Geography on the links below. As you can see the Jim Crow laws were laws in the southern east side border. The laws were in effect everywhere. So who was Jim Crow? Let’s click on the links on top that say history and then on creating in –depth. As you can see the history behind naming laws Jim Crow as you can see was because a character interoperated by Thomas "Daddy" Rice. Rice had put charcoal on his face and dance and sing to this song "Jump Jim Crow". People say he was inspired by a crippled elderly black man in the south who sang that song. This character became widely known, therefore, everything about an African American referred back to Jim Crow, specially the laws. Now to the next link on our sidebar links. Umm yes sir you in the back? (Guy in the back): “Umm yeah how did this affect all colored people? Good question this link will answer. In 1896 Plessy vs. Ferguson made so that the African Americans in the south were on their own with the Jim Crow laws. Many people tried to lead or start a movement against the Jim Crow laws. Example Booker T. Washington who believed in non-confrontational protest. He made a book in 1881 sending a message of learning. On the other hand Du Bois believed you had to confront. Whitney M. Young Jr. believed that the White American community could work with the African American community for this movement against the Jim Crow laws. Phillip Rudolf believed in standing for what he believed that he told President Roosevelt about doing a march in Washington in 1941. In fear of this march Roosevelt sign an order ending discrimination in power plants as requested. Phillip was helped by Bayard Rustin in the 1941 march. The injustices of Jim Crow were strong. Another event during this time period was the testing of no arrest on and equal train. It was a law by the court of supremacy that any color could sit anywhere on the train. It was proven wrong. An example was Ida B. Wells who was ask to move to the color section when she was on the women section. She denied and she bit the conductor. She was arrested. You can learn more details in a fun way on Jim Crow website's simulation which is on the teacher’s resources link on the sidebar. All you see on the history of Jim Crow was presented on programs on PBS. As you can conclude from this the Jim Crow laws affected colored people in every aspect of life!! I want you all to imagine not being able to seat where you want. You can’t talk to the white Americans and every politics is against you. All the segregation!! This ends the tour for today. If you would go to teacher’s resources and go to the sidebar and click simulations and take fun quizzes and games to learn more. You never know what you'll learn tomorrow!!! So if you’ll please exit on your top right. Yes sir the red X. Make sure to watch out for that pop-out!!! Guess he won a vacation to the Bahamas!! Well until next time!!!
Welcome ladies and gentlemen I am Marva Austin and I am going to take to on a tour called The Rise and fall based on the Jim Crow laws. Follow me and we will get started. First if any body doesn’t know that Jim Crow was a set of laws and social customs requiring racial segregation. It is, in passing in the Mississippi separate car law, declared it constitutional, and announced that the state of Mississippi has the undoubted right to compel to blacks to occupy separate cars from whites if it desired to do so. Can anybody answer this question if you answer it correctly I will give you a lollypop. Which states were blacks the majority population? Yes what’s your name? My name is Marget and I know the answer, the answer is Mississippi and South Carolina. Yes that correct. Can anybody answer this question? Which U.S president issued an executive order to desegregated the armed forces? Yes what’s your name? My name is Jason and I know the answer, the answer is Harry S. Truman. Yes that’s correct. Excuse me Marva do I get a sucker too. Yes here catch, nice catch. Nice throw and thank you. As we continue here’s the Supreme Court, in its landmark 1954 decision in the case now commonly known as “Brown v. Board of Education made the finding racially segregated public schools were unconstitutional. Next as we move over to the left here’s Marian Anderson, now she was African-American singer gave a concert on the steps of the Lincoln Memorial in 1939 because the daughter of the American Revolution barred her from performing in Constitution Hall. There are two types of segregation de facto and de jure the difference is that segregation was developed by custom vs. segregation mandated by law. Next as we move to the right here’s the lyrics to Billy Holiday plastered on the wall called “Strange fruit.” The meaning to this song is the word lunching. So I want you to close your eyes and imagine that what you see from what you hear in this song. “Southern trees bear strange fruit. Blood on the leaves and blood at the root. Black bodies swinging in the southern breeze, strange fruit hanging that the whites did to the blacks.” Now open them what did you see? Down here to the left is W.E.B. Du Bois he was the founder and the first and I mean the first editor of NAACP’S monthly magazine. Between the years of 1870 to 1900 there were no African Americans elected. Down here to the right we have George C. Wallace was governor uttered this here fateful word here on this wall that stand before you this was posted here in 1963 it says “ I draw the line in the dust and toss the gauntlet before the feet of tyranny and I say segregation Now, segregation Tomorrow, segregation Forever.” As he said that he died right then and there. Someone said did he really die. I said no I’m just messing with you and this comes to the end on The Rise and fall tour you guys been a great audience, if you want to know more just look up Jim crow laws on your computer screen and there’s all you need to know and MORE. Please exit to your left Thank you.
The Jim Crow Laws are a beneficial to African Americans hell yes more then ever if we didn’t people like Dr. Martin Luther King Jr, and Malcolm x and other African Americans taking a stand and what they believe in and making a change even though it was hard but that over come freedom for all African Americans. If it weren’t for them where would we be?
Good afternoon ladies and gentlemen. Today we will be tourning The History of Jim Crow Website. A site were you can kick back, relax and explore the complex African-American experience of segregation from the 1870s through the 1950s. Shall we get started?
Towards the bottom of the page, there are 6 links you may choose from that take you to different categories of information.
The first is the television page. This page brings you to an "overview" page, which tells you a brief history, stating the original reasons this interesting site was created, information about honorable awards, and useful contact information for tapes used for educational purposes. There are also more links towards the upper left hand side of the page, that may bring you to other areas of interest.
At the top of the page, there is a navigation bar identical to the one on the main page, where you can go to the next link, "History". This will bring you to "From Terror to Triumph". This section is a typically a good place to begin to access historical background, source material, and lesson plans. There are also 9 other sublinks to the lefthand side of the page.
The next link "Geography", shows a small map of the United States which differentiates those laws designed to disfranchise African Americans and segregate them from whites in the schools and public places of the American South and those who aren't in red and greenish brown color. Also, if you click on a state another page will pop up which tells more information about the selected state. As the other pages have, there are many links to the left of the page which get more into detail with facts mentioned on the main page.
The next link speaks of, "American Literature". It Is loaded with lesson plans such as "The Color Purple: A Unit Plan", and "Understanding History Through the Literary Reviews of Invisible Man". At the bottom of the page, there is a list of site recommended for their quality and resource values for students and teachers alike.
The very last link on the navigation bar, other than "Home", is "Teacher Resources". This particular section offers a selection of classroom resources in social studies, literature and the humanities. Finally, the last link is "Home". This site is a great source for teachers and students. It gives you many ideas you can use to better your classroom. For example, you may ask questions like "Are Jim Crow Laws beneficial to Afican Americans?", then direct students to reseach the site to find their answer. A student may reply they think that the Jim Crow laws were beneficial, but only later in life for African Americans. "Seperate but equal" was not so equal, and in reality, treatment and accommodations that were inferior to those provided to white Americans the majority of the time. They may also be inspired by the map on the geography page to add that some states like Louisiana, that had 33 laws passed between 1868 and 1960 while others only had 12 passed through 1865 to 1957 like West Virginia.In 1952, a law passed which prohibited marriage between whites and persons of color, the penalty was up to $1,000 and/or five years imprisonment in Louisiana. In 1955, a similar law was passed were White persons prohibited from marrying Negroes, penalty Up to $100 and/or up to one year imprisonment. Your students might even come up with their own questions as why are there such differences in these two laws? This site can be used for many things, I hope you enjoyed this tour. Thank you for your time and cooperation folks. Have a lovely night.
Today we will taking a tour threw a educational website that educates you oh the Jim Crow Law.We arrives at our first stop wecolme to The History Of Jim Crow.This website isn't one of those boring ordinary this website will educate you but at the same you will be entertained by the fun, exciting games it provided.Is there any questions ok lets move on.Lets go on the simulation. The simulation will included President rosselvelt and other Afirican American civil rights leaders.The first person that we'll see is Booker T . Washington he was a American political leader,educator and author.This simulation take you through his background ask you question as if you were his situation the question ask "What should he to help the African American people achieve?" does anybody know the answer. No, will if gonna tell the answer states that he should build a school that educates our black people. The simulation includes a lot more but this is where we stop. If you have futher questions go to The Histort of Jim Crow.Thank you for coming and have a nice day. The Jim Crow law wasn't benefincal to the blacks just in case you didn't know.
Today we would be taking a tour back to the future where the Jim Crow laws ocurred. Our first stop is at a local restrooms back in the days. Everything look normal right? But its not as you see. There is seperate bathrooms and not talking about seperate from boys from girls. These bathrooms seperated blacks from whites. That was one of the jim crow laws. I bet the white bathrooms was cleaner and bigger than blacks bathrooms. I felt outraged after i read this in the Jim Crow website. the website is a good one. It tells you all about the jim crow laws. it has maps where the jim crow laws ocurred. it has games. well back to the tour our next area is where the jim crow laws were almost stopped. But the jim crow laws only was stopped in certain areas. it almost was a sweet victory for blacks but it was foiled. But what people dont know the jim crow laws dont know the jim crow laws wasnt only assigned to blacks. It was also for asians and native americans. the jim crow laws was mostly in western states.Also even if whites broke one of the jim crow laws no if anybody broke the any of the jim crow laws they would get up to 10 years in prison. Not jail but prison. Thats way too cruel just for breaking a law. What happend to getting a bill. thats how serious the jim crow laws was.The jim crow laws was so strict it didnt try to allow blacks and whites in the same room. the jim crow laws didnt allow interacial marriages. My teacher made us answer tjis questions ....Why was the jim crow beneficial for african americans? i think the jim crow laws wasnt beneficial blacks because it segregated blacks.
Today we’ll be talking a tour through history. Our first stop on our tour trough the Jim Crow website will be the map of the United States. In the map we can see the 50 sates of the U.S. and with states were involved in the Jim Crow Laws. The Jim Crow Lows origined around 1830 and some historical believe that Jim Crow owned the slaves that inspired the Rice’s Act. When the Jim Crow Laws were making the two terms that deal with it were oppression and discrimination. Jim Crow showed images of the black inferiority in the nation popular culture. It become a racial synonymous with black, colored, or negro in the vocabulary of many whites. Separate the races in publics spaces (publics school, parks, accommodations, and transportations) was one of the objectives of the Jim Crow Laws. Another objective was to prevent black males from exercising the right to vote. The Jim Crow Laws were met with the resistance and determination to win back the civil rights. For me the Jim Crow Laws were laws with two faces because in one side they seem to help and be fair with black people, but the other side was with discrimination, racism, and with the goal of make the life hard and impossible to the blacks.
Today we'll be taking a tour through history. Our first stop on our tour through the Jim Crow website will be the map of the United States. The map is clearly show that Jim Crow laws were state and local laws, locate in the Southern and Border States of the United States. Subsequently, it not confines in the South and actually spread across the US. It becomes discriminate against other ethnicities. The cases is relate to segregation, civil rights, and disfranchisement. Segregation is casing the society separating in public and private place. Civil rights is instance abridge nonwhite people. Last, Disfranchisement case one citizen not right to vote, to pass to vote by poll taxes and literacy tests. All of those 3 point it case the women and man as socially responsible individuals. African American pursued higher education to save them. Jim Crow law is enacted to support racial segregation in the past. The voting rights act ended discrimination in voting for federal state and elections. Last, it dropped racial segregation. The “Jim Crow” is good histories lesson learned from the past, it would help to guide the right way for our next generation to be equal for everyone and not be happen at the past again.
Today we will be taking a tour through history. Our first stop on our tour through the Jim Crow website will be the map of the United States.Let’s start by looking at a map of the United States. The interactive map offered on this site helps us see exactly which laws were in effect in certain states. For example, let’s look at Texas The laws there required that all taxes paid by blacks should go to maintaining schools for African Americans.In Virginia, streetcars and trains were required to provide separate but equal compartments to white and colored passengers.These laws were different in every state some states even got laws before other states. This laws are known as the Jim Crow laws they are refer to them as the black codes. The term “Jim Crow” is believed to have originated around 1830. The emergence of segregation in the South began immediately after the Civil War, when the formerly enslaved people acted quickly to establish their own churches and schools separate from whites. Now we will talk about how these laws was benefited colored people. During Reconstruction, Black Americans began to gain some freedoms that were previously unknown to them as slaves. However, in the 1890s racial tensions began to flare once again. White Americans in the North and South became less supportive of civil rights.The South, as well as the North, was forced to integrate all public institutions.These laws benefited colored people in many was help better there education and also helped them gain ther equal rights.It took them almost a hundred years for the discrimnation to end and it finally ended thanks to the Jim Crow laws. Thanks for coming on the tour with me we have come to the end of the tour. You can go to the teacher resoures page to play games and quizzes. This web site is very interesting and it will teach you alot.
Today we will be taking a tour through history. We will start with the Jim Crow Website. A very good place to search about the Jim Crow Laws. These made segregation legal in many states and this law wasn’t very beneficial to African Americans.
Let’s start at http://www,jimceowhistory.org. This website has many interactive things to do. Like television, history, geography, American literature, and teachers resources. Out of all those choices I choose geography and learned that in •1922 Texas Voting Rights were not accepting any African Americans to vote. In Virginia around 1873 Miscegenation occurred making White persons who married Negroes would be jailed for at least one year, and fined a minimum of $100. Those who performed such ceremonies faced fines of $200, of which one-half would go to the informer. in that same year Arkansas Barred school segregation and refused to provide equal and like accommodations for the education of each and every youth of school age. And in •1947 the same law that occur in Virginia happened in Arkansas. The law said that Sexual relations and marriage between whites and blacks was illegal. Penalty: First conviction $20 to $100, second, $100 minimum and up to 12 months imprisonment, third and subsequent convictions, one to three years imprisonment.
This information led me to know that The Jim Crow Law was not beneficial to African Americans. It was a law that made everything worse for most of the African Americans in the south of the United States.
But this law did not bring most of these African Americans to a breaking. No, some people did something about this unlawful rule. Take for example Rosa Parks, born in Tuskegee, Alabama, is one of the single-most influential individuals of the Civil Rights Movement whose refusal in 1955 to move to the back of a segregated bus and subsequent arrest triggered the Alabama Bus Boycotts. The boycotts ended only after a successful U.S. Supreme Court ruling that bus segregation was illegal. And there are many more…Ned Cobb, Virginia Durr, Joseph Gelders. And many more in other states like Arkansas, Louisiana, Florida, South and North Carolina. Just to name a few.
So even After something very awful, something good has to come of it. And this ladies and gentlemen concludes my Jim Crow History tour!
today we will be taking a tour through Jim crow... before entering i experienced things in life such as back then history then today history especially the horstorical news that have been going on! in the tour today what i learned is south african citizens jim crow laws hated "colored people" they presumed to be phyiscally identifiable and behavionally distinct, were excluded from virtually all public accommodationdo.This exclusion marjed within men & women as subordinate human beings, whose presence within the white would threaten while authority & reinforce appican americans whole status. jim crow & literature is one of the important to me because someday i will like to be narrative writter and jim envioroment is created instrumental roles in a board spectrum of significant american writting from both the 19th&20th centries. As in the color purple aunit plan besides back was television shows such as the historical t.v. shows up to date are THE SUPREME COURT & JUSTICE OF LIFE....what i also dont like about jim crow with the bad stuff that happend black people was cold because on top of that they were already going through slavery!!! This is the end of my jim crow tour, thanks for visting my long message on jim crow.
Today we will be taking a tour through history. Our first stop on our tour through the Jim Crow website will be the map of the United States. This website was very good because it showed a lot of information about Jim Crow that I didn’t know about him. Then when I went to go read about Florida it said that Florida enacted 19 Jim Crow segregation laws between (1865-1967).Then it said black who entered a railroad car reserved for the other race could be sentences to the pillory or whipped 39 times or both.Then when I went South Carolina it said they passed 22 segregation laws between (1865-1957).Six miscegenation laws, six schools segregation laws and four railroads.Then the next place i stop at was the pictures and it had on the picture 9 black african american woman sitting on steps seated like children.Thats why jim crow research was good.(Question)Where jim crow laws beneficial (goods) for african americans? well i said no because in jim crows laws it said colored people couldnt go to whites school to me that was very rude because that was very racism.this all i found in the jim crow research.
In our class we took a look at this website that talks about the laws of segregation, they were called the Jim Crow laws, they are dated as far back as 1830s and 1850s but they didn't start off as laws.
Jim crow was the name of a character created by Thomas Rice, and was used in a Minstrel act, it stereotyped African americans.1850 Jim crow became a racial slur synonymous with black people, used by many whites. By the 1900s Jim crow became the name for laws of racial discrimination. These laws were mainly used in the south the website shows a geography map of the U.S states. This website also talked about the African American activists who fought against these laws of unfair treatment, such as Booker T. Washington who wanted African Americans to gain technical so they could function and be successful in American society, also W.E.B Du Bois who helped formed the NAACP which used the courts to bring change for African Americans. Other parts of the website showed American literature witch tells the literature that used the Jim crow laws or talked about African American discrimination and there struggles. Lastly threes a section for the teachers called teachers resources.
When I went to the Jim Crow website one of the things that I liked about it was eth map and obviously the other one were the games, in the map I saw the states of the south like: Texas, Oklahoma, Louisiana, Miami, Mississippi, north and south Carolina, and some more I wanted to see the differences between one and other, the Jim Crow laws and the effect that the laws had in each one of these states today I’m only going to talk about Texas, and north Carolina because they had the same laws but they are far away from each other so we can see the differences.
One of the same laws that these two states had in common was Education [Constitution]
White and black children shall be taught in separate public schools, "but there shall be no discrimination made in favor of, or to the prejudice of, either race." But we can see that in north Carolina all the students black and white went to the same school with no discrimination and it was in 1875 and in Texas was in 1866 but it said Education [Constitution] All taxes paid by blacks to go to maintaining African schools. Duty of the legislature to "encourage colored schools." So in this state the money from taxes of Africans Americans went right to Africans schools that only were for black students, so like in this one they are different let see another one, Health Care [Statute] Mental hospitals to be segregated by race this was in north Carolina in 1929 some hospitals were segregated, so black and whites could be there but they had to be separated and in Texas Health Care [Statute] Established a state tuberculosis sanitarium for blacks, this was in 1935. We can see that even if the states had the same laws they worked differently and in different years.
I think that these laws did make a difference during this time, in some ways like they had more rights after a while and they had more services like health care and education and stuff like that but they were segregated so it they had to suffer too. Like they had to do all the thing separated from the whites so in some way they did and in some they didn’t.
Today we will take a trip through history and learn more about --The Jim Crow Laws. We will first look at a map from jim Crow. this website shoed and told me alot of information that I never new and learned about discrimination and none equal rights. Jim Crow laws were racial segregation laws in the South that were imposed on African Americans. They were similar to Black Codes, which were restrictive laws enforced on newly freed slaves after the Civil War. After the American Civil War most states in the South passed anti-African American legislation. These became known as Jim Crow laws. Theses laws discriminated aginst African Americans. They prevented them from being able to go to school and they had to go to different resturants to eat. The Jim Crow laws came from a man named Homer Plessey, when he rode in an all white rail-road car.
It took African Americans a while to adapt to the Jim Crow laws. : At the time of the decision in this case, 17 states and the District of Columbia had segregated public schools. During the 1952-1953 Supreme Court term, five cases, including Brown, challenged the doctrine of "separate but equal" that existed in elementary and high schools. The schools involved were clearly unequal to the white schools. In South Carolina, for instance, the white schools had one teacher for every 28 students and the black schools had one teacher for every 47 students. Additionally, there were differences such as, brick and stucco versus rotting wood and indoor plumbing versus outhouses. This was the Brown vs. Board of Education. The Jim Crow Laws did not benifit for the Frican American sbut for the whites. They got what they wanted, fot they Africans not to get what they deserved, nothing. So no, they laws did not benifit them.
Today i will be taking a tour through the history of the Jim Crow law. The Jim Crow website is a great resource to find useful information. The first stop of our tour will be in the geography section. This portion of the website shows the map of the United States. The Jim Crow law began in the south before spreading across the nation. The map shows an extensive survey of the laws created to exclude African Americans and to create segregation with the white people at public places and at schools in the American South. The next stop of our tour will be the history section. The history of the Jim Crow law stretches from politics to education to sports. Dealing with the Jim Crow law to me, would have been the most difficult task. On the website, there's a link that leads you to a page that explains what people went through dealing with the law. In the 1860's and 1870's many southern blacks preffered segregated schools, especially the all black colleges. Black Americans were left to their own devices for surviving Jim Crow. There's a link on this page that reads the Plessy Vs. Ferguson case that explains the signifigance of the case. The Plessy vs. Ferguson case was an important case during the Jim Crow period. In 1896 there was a case held in the Supreme Court. The Court established a Louisiana law saying segregrated railroad facilities as long as the facilities were equal to eachother. The Court ruled that segregation did not frame discrimination then certifying the "seperate but equal" doctrine that was practiced until the Brown vs. Board dicision in 1954. I think that the Jim Crow law wasn’t beneficial to African Americans because there was racial discrimination towards them.
Good After teacher and students today we will take a tour of a website about the Jim Crow the laws (www.jimcrowhistory.org). This website will help us explore, learn, and understand the effect of the Jim Crow Laws in the United States. The specifics will learn is how the law affected people economically, socially, and politically. We will also learn why the rules were made, who were the rules meant for, and were the rules followed. The main goal of is tour to learn if the Jim Crow laws were beneficial to African Americans. Our first stop or shall I say click on this tour is history. On this tour is the history section here we will click on the link that says Creating Jim Crow: in depth essay. From this we will how they came up with the name Jim Crow which happens to be the name of a song from a play. Jim Crow was one of the many slurs that whites called blacks. But the end of the century the racial discrimination was now referred to as the Jim Crow laws or practice. Our second click is Surviving Jim Crow: in depth essay this section will give us a glimpse of what it was like to live with Jim Crow laws which were created for blacks in the south. These law cause segregation in the south during the time when the laws were made was a great deal of violence. The violence reigned from straight up disrespect to utterly unnecessary lynching. Over three thousand seven hundred black men and women were lynched from 1889 to 1930. I can understand how a group of people could have so much hatred for another group based on skin color (that’s my opinion based from this fact). Then again history show that about most of the white people did dominate and treated the Jews and most minority groups in a very cruel way (my opinion). Our third click is Resisting Jim Crow: in depth essay this section explains the protesting against Jim Crow laws. During this time the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP) came together and it was organization of intergraded people fighting for equal rights. The NAACP also fought legal cases in the Supreme Court. The fourth and last topic in the history section is Escaping Jim Crow some black were leaving there homes and moving to Kansas and Oklahoma. This was known as Kansas Exodus. Thousands of blacks fled the south to get away from the Jim Crow laws. The next topic on our tour is geography on this page you can click on a topic like for example Women and Jim Crow. After that you click on the states and it tells you what the women did to help fight Jim Crow laws. Shirley Graham Du Bois, Gwendolyn Bennett ,Maud Cuney, Hare Gwendolyn Brooks, Gertrude Rush, Grace Abbott Lugenia Burns Hope Daisy Lee Gaston Bates ,Elizabeth Eckford ,Margaret Taylor Goss Burroughs, Alice Dunbar-Nelson Mahalia Jackson ,Ida Bell Wells-Barnett, Katherine Dunham, Nella Larsen ,Katherine Davis Chapman Tillman, Margaret Esse Danner, Ann Allen Shockley, Lucy Wilmot Smith Shirley Graham ,Du Bois Ruby Dee Effie Lee Newsome, Charlotte Forten ,Meta Vaux Warrick Fuller Beatrice M. Murphy, and Ethel Waters are some of those women. Our next topic on this tour is American literature. In this section is a list of books inspired by the Jim Crow. The books are The Color Purple, A Raisin in the Sun, Roll of Thunder Hear My Cry, To Kill a Mockingbird, Beloved, Black Like Me, Understanding History Through the Literary Reviews of Invisible Man, and Zora Neale Hurston: Fighting Jim Crow through the All-Black Community. Another topic for those of you who don’t like reading is the Television section will give you the same information without all the reading. We strongly suggest that everyone go to Teachers Resources to check if you actually learned something. I hope you did learn thank you and come again goodbye.
Today i will be taking a tour threw the Jim Crow Law. This Law is very important to many people. This website is made for students but also teachers and staff so that we all can learn about the Jim Crow Law.
Now Lets start looking at the map of the United States. The interactive map showed how the law affected out of each state. For example in Missouri, "Separate free public schools are required for white and Negro children." Also "Provides education for all children as long as white children are sent to separate schools from black children." In Mississippi, "Miscegenation declared a felony. Nullified interracial marriages if parties went to another jurisdiction where such marriages were legal. Also prohibited marriages between persons of the Caucasian race and those persons who had one eighth of more Asian blood." In South Carolina, railroads and steamboat companies to provide separate but equal accommodations for white and black passengers. Did not apply to streetcars. Penalty: A company that failed to enforce this act fined $100 per day, each day, to be recovered in action brought by any passenger on any train or steamboat who has been provided accommodations with a person of a different race."
Next what does "Jim Crow" mean? Jim Crow means "The systematic practice of discriminating against and segregating Black people, especially as practiced in the American South from the end of Reconstruction to the mid-20th century." It was Orginated in the 1830's.
Now im looking at picture. The pictures shows a little boy dancing. He's singing and there are other people around him singing and playing thier guitar just like him. They are extremely happy. But his clothes had holes and that was sad becuase it showed how African Americans lived. Another picture showed how a African American sitting down on a railroad car and a white and men and woman came behind him making him give up his seat just so that they rest thier legs.
In my next Link i went to Teacher Resources and at the top left hand side and click simulations. The first game that i'm going to play is the Simulation game. On that game i scored a 57 which is a F+ but the test was really hard as you would like to know. The test included "Jim Crow: Paths of Resistance". It talked about what made the Jim Crow Law important.
Was the Jim Crow Law Beneficial to African Americans? The Jim Crow Law was not beneficial to African Americans becuase it allowed African Americans to be segregated and showed racial discrimination towards them.
Today we will be taking a tour through the Jim Crow website. Our first stop on our tour trough the Jim Crow website will be the truth of the Jim Crow law.The term Jim Crow is originated in a song performed by Daddy Rice a long time ago. This website has very good info because it had much information that alot of people don't know about. Jim Crow is a very interesting law. Some may think it was very negative but some don't realize the truth to it all. The Jim Crow law wanted all the schools to be equal but they had to be seperated in a certain way to avoid dire conflicts. It was hard for black people to do much becuase they bearly had rights. African-American children got their first taste of racial discrimination when they found themselves barred from attending school with white children, and being sent, instead, to inferior facilities. Later in their lives both races realized that they were equally resticted when it came to education. The Jim crow law kinda stopped current conflicts at the time to a minimal. The Jim Crow Law actually helped both races without either realizing until later in their lives.
Good day fellow historians. Today we’ll be taking a tour of the infamous – and unusual Jim Crow Laws. The term Jim Crow originated in Thomas Rice’s 1828 song, “Jump Jim Crow”. Used to associate a rural black person with shabby clothes, Jim Crow thereon become a central character in “blackface” – a new type of theater in which various White Americans applied black paint to themselves to enact racist scenes in Black America. What Jim Crow didn’t know was his influence would extend far beyond theater, leading to real killing and real suffering in the African American community.
Our first stop will be a map of the United States. Upon further inspection, you will notice that a whopping 17 states had laws implemented to further the “separate but equal” Jim Crow ideology. Particularly, the restrictions became stricter the farther you went east. In Florida, intruding on a train car of the opposite race’s category alone could get you locked in a pillory and whipped 39 times. In Kentucky, white and black cohabitation could be punishable to 5 years in prison and a $1,000 fine. That was not the worst bit. The government only had to provide equality from the state. Favoritism or refusing service by businesses or workers was seen as capitalism and ignored. Even the illegal black lynchings often went unreported. How was this equal?
Our next stop is at the history booth. You may wonder, how did segregation itself spread through so much of America? In 1892, a group of concerned African Americans urged Homer Plessy to board a Louisiana train and sit in the white traincar. Being only 1/8th black, if Plessy was arrested, the black activists would have a defense against the government (the train did not distinguish black from colored). However, they lost the case and the famous Plessy vs. Ferguson case would result in 58 more years of racial segregation in the US.
Our last stop will be at the simulation center. Whitney M. Young Jr. was not only a profound civil rights activist, but also a clever and critical thinker. He knew that to improve the situation for Blacks, he must make his actions palatable to whites. Despite criticism from many other black activists, Young worked alongside the white people and headed an orginization called the Urban League. To me his methods and perserverance is inspiring and sets an example for future generations while helping the present.
Thank you for attending our tour. May the stream of knowledge never end!
WWWWWHHHHHHHHHAAAAAAATTTTTTTTT!!!!!???????????? AAAAAAARRRGGGGHHHHHHHH!!!! My computer said 11:59!
Today we will be taking a tour through history. There is a famous case in the Jim Crow period, Plessy vs. Ferguson. Plessy, board a train, whereupon he was quickly arrested for sitting in a car reserved for whites. However, the Supreme Court decided that black and white can separate, but equal. African-American children got their first taste of racial discrimination when they found themselves barred from attending school with white children, and being sent, instead, to inferior facilities. Growing up, these children learned that their lives were equally restricted outside the classroom. They were forbidden from sharing a bus seat with a white passenger or to ride in the same compartment of a train. They were denied access to public parks and restaurants, and, in some states, were forced to enter public amusements like the circus through a separate entrance. Black Movie Theater patrons were seated in the balcony, separated from white customers in what was commonly referred to as "Nigger heaven." When they went to work, African Americans were forced to use separate entrances and bathrooms and to collect their paychecks at separate windows. Even in death, legislation ensured that the races would remain separate. Several states prohibited hearses from carrying both races, and cemeteries were required to maintain separate graveyards. The Jim Crow Laws mandated "separate but equal" status for black Americans. However, the fact in the history shows me more separate than equal. They separate white and black, even show black the racial discrimination. That make they live hard and without respect. Ms. Wells was sitting on the white side of the train and the conductor told her to get up and she refused to do this because she was in the white ladies car, the conductor tried to remove her by force, she bit him. Eventually, other was summoned to the scene, and she was removed from the train. The white passengers cheered her removal from the train. Ms. Wells used her paper – The free speech and Highlight – to attack the civil of lynching. She was told never to return to Memphis or her life would be in danger. I think this is ready wrong because they didn’t have to do that they could of told her to sit somewhere else on the train then kicking her off. That was mess up the white people cheered if that were me I would give them the middle finger and keep on trucking on my way off the train. Jim Crow it's one thing I never learn or heard about it. When I read this website, I know about Jim Crow. In this website, I am interest on the term--Jim Crow. The term Jim Crow is originated in a song performed by Daddy Rice. By 1850s, Jim crow this character had become a standard part of the minstrel show scene in America. On the eve of the Civil War, the Jim Crow idea was one of many stereotypical images of black inferiority in the popular culture of the day. "Jim Crow" this word had became a racial slur synonymous with black, colored, or Negro in the vocabulary of many whites. By the end of the centruy acts of racial discrimination toward blacks were often referred to as Jim Crow lwas and practices.In protest of the law, blacks in the state tested the statute's constitutionality by having a light-skinned African American, Homére Plessy, board a train, whereupon he was quickly arrested for sitting in a car reserved for whites.The Court asserted that Plessy's rights were not denied him because the separate accommodations provided to blacks were equal to those provided whites. It also ruled that "separate but equal" accommodations did not stamp the "colored race with a badge of inferiority. In my opinion, at that time in the U.S. there was hard for the black people to get their equal rights. The next section is, American Literature, its the section where it shows the different pieces of literature connected to Jim Crow. Many of the books/stories are well-known literature,and some were even written by Langston Hughes, he was an African American writer and poet who also took part in the Harlem Renaissance. It also suggests different lesson plans for teachers, and how they can incorporate those books and relate them to their lesson.Next what does "Jim Crow" mean? Jim Crow means "The systematic practice of discriminating against and segregating Black people, especially as practiced in the American South from the end of Reconstruction to the mid-20th century." It was Orginated in the 1830's.
Now im looking at picture. The pictures shows a little boy dancing. He's singing and there are other people around him singing and playing thier guitar just like him. They are extremely happy. But his clothes had holes and that was sad becuase it showed how African Americans lived. Another picture showed how a African American sitting down on a railroad car and a white and men and woman came behind him making him give up his seat just so that they rest thier legs.
In my next Link i went to Teacher Resources and at the top left hand side and click simulations. The first game that i'm going to play is the Simulation game. On that game i scored a 57 which is a F+ but the test was really hard as you would like to know. The test included "Jim Crow: Paths of Resistance". It talked about what made the Jim Crow Law important.
Was the Jim Crow Law Beneficial to African Americans? The Jim Crow Law was not beneficial to African Americans becuase it allowed African Americans to be segregated and showed racial discrimination towards them.
The Jim Crow laws were state and local laws enacted in the Southern and border states of the United States and enforced between 1876 and 1965. They mandated "separate but equal" status for black Americans. In reality, this led to treatment and housing that were almost always inferior to those provided to white Americans. The most important laws required that public schools, public places and public transportation, like trains and buses, have separate facilities for whites and blacks.
State-sponsored school segregation was declared unconstitutional by the Supreme Court of the United States in 1954 in Brown v. Board of Education. Generally, the remaining Jim Crow laws were overruled by the Voting Rights Act. None were in effect at the end of the 1960s. During the Reconstruction period of 1865-76, federal law provided civil rights protection in the South for freedmen—the African-Americans who had formerly been slaves The Supreme Court declared legal public school segregation unconstitutional in 1954, and it ended in practice in the 1970s. Congress to pass the Civil Rights Act which immediately annulled Jim Crow laws that segregated restaurants, hotels and theatres; these facilities immediately dropped racial segregation.

Let's take a journey through the Jim Crow website. The first stop in our tour will be the history section. In the history section we find many articles that talk about the initiation of the Jim Crow laws. You may ask yourself what these laws were. The Jim Crow laws were racist laws against the rights of African Americans. They would give the idea that African Americans were inferior to white people. The Jim Crow laws started after the Civil War when slaves wanted to form their own churches and schools, and white people opposed to it. Africans Americans were attacked and killed by secret white’s organizations such as the Ku Klux Klan. Let’s go to the geography section where we will find the map of the United States. In the south of the U.S. slavery existed before the Civil War and it was there where these laws started before they would spread into the whole country. It is surprising to know the kind of laws that existed here in California such as the separation of African American, Chinese and Japanese children from the white kids in schools. Let’s move on to the gallery of the Jim Crow website. Here we find images of the called Lynch law in different states. One of the pictures shows the dead body of an African American in Mississippi. He was burned to death after he was accused of assaulting a white girl. The man denied having something to do with the assault of the girl, but he was lynched anyways. A table from the geography section shows that during the years 1889 to 1918, the total number of lynched people in the U.S. was 3224. Out of those 3224 lynched, 2522 were African Americans. When I read this I felt sad. Clearly these laws affected Africans Americans economically, socially and politically by putting their self esteem down. Imagine yourself being treated bad for the way you look, think or act. The Jim Crow laws made me feel bad for the way African Americans were treated, but I also feel happy to know that there were people that stood up against those laws.

To begin to understand the laws and what they stood for you must first understand its histoy. The term Jim Crow originated in a minstrel act performed by Daddy Rice. This white man adopted this persona of a stereotypical black man after watching an elderly black man and listening to his song. The link on the first page of the 'From Terror to Triumph: Historical Overview' essay labeled Jim Crow will lead you to more information.
Further down this essay the word miscegenation appears. many people may not understand what this means but this certain law prevented men and women from interacial mariage.The white supremists even went so far as to deny suffrage rights from african americans.
Going back up a few paragraphs you will find info on violence against blacks. Thousands of africans were killed during this period by the nefarious ku klux klan. This gang was formed in response to africans being elected into public office and earning more rights. In the 1860s and 70s blacks were actually grateful that the schools were seperated especially in the all black colleges. These schools gave them a feeling of independence and freedom.
The highlighted name W.E.B. Du Bois appears in the next section of the essay and reveals how even in the face of resistence man can achieve.
To further deal with the white mans opression blacks would write songs of mockery and even go so far as to sing in front of them.Unfortunately after a while this behavior was expected from africans and labeled the Sambo chaacter.
Disturbingly if you were to read alittle farther down about the silent film 'A Birth of a Nation' you will discover truly how racist people were at the time. Africans were depicted as gorilla like being on the floor of congress eating bananas. To fully experience the feeling of wonder you get when you read about the laws you have to look at it yourself.
Today we will be taking a tour through history. Our first stop on our tour through the Jim Crow website will be the Image Gallery. In one picture there is a white man made into a black person.He's wearing a weird outfit and he is acting stupid, he is smacking his butt and fooling around. Theres a picture called "THE TWO PLATFORMS". In the picture the whhite man looks sophisticated and the black man looks stupid like he has no since. In another picture I see a couple of black men waiting in line to vote, but they have to be dressed decent. In the next picture a black man was sitting on a train and a white man was tellind him to get uo so him and his family could sit down.
This is bad for african american because it was seperating the races.
Today we will be taking a tour through the image gallery of jim crow.I went to the website and this is what i found laws that legally seperated blacks and whites. i went to the image gallery and seen a man tapping his butt actin stupid dressed in rags with no shoes but sandels with a wide smile on his face. In another image i saw two people in the two platforms picture one looks like a human one looks like a goblin ones hair is not done one is sad one is happy.A couple of black men in another image is waiten their turn to vote they have to be dressed professionally in order to vote. In this image a black man is sitting on the train and a white man was trying to make him get up just so he and his familt can sit down.
Today we will be takeing a tour through history learning about Jim crow. In the history of Jim Crow in the web site tells that jim crow was like a resemble of black men. After or maybe befor that happend they made a song about "jim crow". Also what the web site tells us that the supreme court decided that the black well be separated from the white and in that time it was hard for the black because they couldint get there rights. they showed where jim crow was and where it got started on the map in the web site. I feel that this was an important lesson to that i learned.
Today we will be taking a tour through history. Our first stop on your tour through Jim Crow website will be Jim Crow's Collection. first image is a fixture of the minstrel shows that toured the South; a white man made up as a black man sang and its like a weird picture to me. Second, in 1873, Negroes hiding in the swamps of Louisiana.Third,African American from a Philadelphia Railway car after the implementation of Jim Crow and I was thinking that this image show that some African American are breaking the law.And the last image is,in Wilmington, North Carolina,it was a first riot after disfranchisement legilation,and 400 white are burned and I realized that is horrible happened and I was thinking that they weren'trespect and everything. All images that I saw is learned me a history and respect other color.
Today we will be takeing a tour through history on Jim Crow. In the web site it tells us that, it as certain types of laws made against black and the south so they couldnt do things. They had brown vs. board of education. It was only the south because the south were confederate states. Also that the jim crow law want the schools to be different but they was seperated and also some of the states was avoiding the black registration. This is what I got out the web site.
Today we will be taking a tour through history on Jim Crow. Jim Crow was the named after the racial caste system. It began 1877 and the mid-1960s which happened in the southern and border states. Jim Crow was a lot more than just a rigid anti-Black law. It was a way of life, everyday things. Under Jim Crow, African Americans were relegated to the status of second class citizens. Jim Crow represented the legitimization of anti-Black racism. Many Christian ministers and theologians taught that Whites were the Chosen people, Blacks were cursed to be servants, and God supported racial segregation. But of course that is not true everybody is born the same.
There was really mean and unbelievable laws like
A Black male could not offer his hand (to shake hands) with a White male because it implied being socially equal. Obviously, a Black male could not offer his hand or any other part of his body to a White woman, because he risked being accused of rape.
Blacks and Whites were not supposed to eat together. If they did eat together, Whites were to be served first, and some sort of partition was to be placed between them.
Blacks were not allowed to show public affection toward one another in public, especially kissing, because it offended Whites.
ONE OF THE PICTURES IN THE GALLERY IS OF A WHITE MAN MIMICKING BLACK STEROTYPES, HE HAS PAINTED HISELF BLACK, FOR ENTERAINMENT PURPOSE. TO ME THIS PICTURE SAYS BLACK PEOPLE ARE POOR BECAUSE HE HAS HOLES IN HIS CLOTHS AND IT LOOKS LIKE HE IS DANCEING,AND THAT THEY DID NOT TAKE BLACK PEOPLE SERIOUSLY.
ANOTHOR PICTURE IN THE GALLERY SOHWES A WHITE MAN AND IS PRETTY MUCH COMPARING HIM TO A MONKEY SAYS ALL BLACK PEOPLE HAVE BIG LIPS AND BIG NOISES AND NAPPY HAIRAND UGLY.
ANOTHOR PICTURE IN THE GALLERY HAS A BLACK MAN IN THE MIDDLE OF A GROUP DANCING AND ACTING A FOOL.THEY PRETTY MUCH ARE SAYING BLACK PEOPLE HAVE NO TYPE OF SENCE!
SO PRETTY MUCH THE JIM CROW LAWS ARE LAWS TO KEEP WHITES AND BLACKS APART OR IN OTHOR WORDS SEGGRATED AND LEAGLLY SPREAD THE IDEA THAT WHITES ARE BETTER THAN BLACKS.
~~~~~NISE~~~~~
Today we'll be taking a tour through history. Our first stop on our tour through the Jim Crow website will be at the Imagery Gallery. This picture shows a black man and a woman who had been stripped of there clothes. The man has been hung and the woman was beat, and now is mourning his death. The second picture shows a white man in a suit looking very sophisticated, while the black man in front of him is not even drawn like a human being. The black man looks like a made up character, with a very large lip, high cheekbones with a wide nose. The last picture ill be talking about is The Rex Theater for Colored People. Blacks and whites couldn't even watch a movie together because of the Jim Crow effect. Our second stop through the Jim Crow website will be at history and then on creating in -depth. This man was believed to be the Jim Crow figure. This man is a character interoperated by Thomas "Daddy" Rice. Rice would Stereotype black people buy painting his face with charcoal and jump around acting stupid, dancing and singing to this song "Jump Jim Crow". Rice became widely known, therefore, everything about an African American referred back to Jim Crow, especially the laws.
The next stop is, American Literature, this is the section where it shows the different pieces of literature connected to Jim Crow. Many of the books/stories are well-known literature, and some were even written by Langston Hughes, he was an African American writer and poet who also took part in the Harlem Renaissance. Under Jim Crow, African Americans were relegated to the status of second-class citizens. Many Christian thought that whites were the chosen people, and blacks were cursed to be servants, and God supported racial segregation. Blacks couldn’t even use the same water fountain as whites neither restroom. The Jim Crow Laws did not benefit for the African American but for the whites. The whites always got what they wanted; The Africans American didn’t get what they deserved. Martin Luther King was killed for what he believed in for trying to make a change in our world today. He was thinking about our future and not dwelling on the past an all it racial differences, He saw better day. Day like today were I could walk on the same side of the street as a white person holding hands. Or days were black and whites could attend the same school an be taught with the same resources of whites.
So I think the Jim Crow help the African to get their equal rights for education, also their life in the America.
The Jim Crow was the name of a racial caste system that operated mostly, but not strongly in southern and border states. The Jim Crow Law period let black people into public places like schools and public transport it made people “segregated but equal”. The law was enforced between 1876 and 1965.The most important laws required that public schools, public places and public transportation, like trains and buses, have separate facilities for whites and blacks etc...
Jim Crow represented the legitimization of anti-Black racism. Many Christian ministers and theologians taught that Whites were the Chosen people, Blacks were cursed to be servants, and
that God supported racial segregation but that wasn’t the case they were just arrogant, ignorant and, dumb. The jim crow law was harsh I think having to follow all those rules like
“Never assert or even intimate that a White person is lying”.
“Never impute dishonorable intentions to a White person’.
“Never suggest that a White person is from an inferior class”.
“Never lay claim to, or overly demonstrate, superior knowledge or intelligence”.
“Never curse a White person”.
“Never laugh derisively at a White person”.
“Never comment upon the appearance of a White female”.
The Jim Crow Laws was a polite way for the blacks to respect the whites.
Of course the blacks were denied the ability to vote.
The blacks were being separate from everything.
Jails, bathrooms ,water fountain, doors to walking in and exit ,hospitals.
Blacks and whites were prohibited to do anything together im guessing life was safe and calm that way!

The Jim Crow Laws was basically Segregation. This happened between 1870 through the 1950's. Whites had it fair and blacks did now. The whole idea of the Jim Crow laws was to not have interation with the opposite race. Black and white people had seperate drinking fountains, bathroom, they couldn't go to the same park or ride on the same bus for transportation. There was serperate schools that kids would go to, one being white and the other a black school. Also whites and blacks were not aloud to have "interacial marrages", this means they couldn't marry the opposite race. And blacks were not aloud to do the following:
“Never impute dishonorable intentions to a White person’.
“Never suggest that a White person is from an inferior class”.
“Never lay claim to, or overly demonstrate, superior knowledge or intelligence”.
“Never curse a White person”.
“Never laugh derisively at a White person”.
“Never comment upon the appearance of a White female”.
Twenty-seven Jim Crow laws were passed in the Lone Star state from 1866 to 1958. Some examples include:

An African American drinks out of a segregated water cooler designated for "colored" patrons in 1939 at a streetcar terminal in Oklahoma City
Virginia.
In conclusion This went on for many years. Blacks were treated very unfairly while whites were treated well.
What I have seen on the Jim Crow website was alot of laws that were made some of them caught my eye and some of them did not so...... ill be back to say more...
