Plessy vs. Ferguson
Any facts that you find important: such equality extended only so far as political and civil rights (e.g., voting and serving on juries), not "social rights" Who was Plessy? 7/8 white man, 1/8 black man who got in trouble for sitting in a white seat on a bus <span style="background-color: #ffffff; font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">What was his complaint? There wasnt equality under the law <span style="background-color: #ffffff; font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">How did the Supreme Court rule? That no race is better than the other <span style="background-color: #ffffff; font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">Was it unanimous? No, one person said they should change it <span style="background-color: #ffffff; font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">How did that ruling set up the conditions for Jim Crow laws to be enacted and enforced? There were still laws that segregated people. As long as there is only a social difference, that is okay <span style="background-color: #ffffff; font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">Personal reactions of group members: Very unfair. This doesnt go along with the constitution. It is disturbing that we could treat others so poorly.

<span style="background-color: #ffffff; font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: 1.1em;">The Origin of Jim Crow
<span style="background-color: #ffffff; font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">Timeline: Late 18 hundreds to the 1960's <span style="background-color: #ffffff; font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">1832- Daddy rice started tradition of face-painting to make fun of blacks <span style="background-color: #ffffff; font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">1843- Virginia Mentrals made face-painting and dancing popular among whites <span style="background-color: #ffffff; font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">Late 1800's- Jim Crow laws started <span style="background-color: #ffffff; font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">1883- U.S. Supreme court said civil rights act of 1875 was unconstitutional (private businesses can practice segregation) 1914- Southern states started to have segregation in buildings and more 1915- supreme court started to say jim crow laws were unfair 1954- Supreme court ruled that brown vs board education said segregating public school unconstitutional 1960- Civil rights movement <span style="background-color: #ffffff; font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">Any facts that you find important: started due to entertainment. It took several court cases to end them. <span style="background-color: #ffffff; font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">Personal reactions of group members: It is sad how many court cases it took to finally stop these unjust laws. It is also sad that people are so inhumane just because society believes something.

<span style="background-color: #ffffff; font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: 1.1em;">Examples of Jim Crow Laws
<span style="background-color: #ffffff; font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">Any facts that you find important: That any places that could create social friendships between blacks and whites were wiped out. The government tried to do as much as they could to separate them. One example of a law was on buses, people were separated by their race. Blacks in the back of the bus(Alabama), while whites were in the front. Also, in Arizona, no blacks could marry whites and vice-versa. If they wanted to, their marriage essentially didn't exist. <span style="background-color: #ffffff; font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: 13px;"> In Georgia, mental hospitals were segregated. If we had to obey the bus rules, I would definitely walk more, so i wouldn't have to cave in to their segregation. If I loved someone, I would still marry them, even if the state didn't recognize it. Lastly, with the mental hospital, I would be disgusted that i was even segregated in a mental hospital! <span style="background-color: #ffffff; font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">Personal reactions of group members: I think it is disgusting that even down to Mental Hospitals, people were segregated among each other. How can people be so demeaning? Why should we treat someone poorly for only their skin-color, something they cant even do anything about?

He effected several groups of people, and made life much easier for many, which is why I think he should be a person to admire.

<span style="background-color: #ffffff; font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">We felt sad and hopeless for the family, after listening to this story. <span style="background-color: #ffffff; font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">The effect that the person's voice on us was simpathy for his suffering. <span style="background-color: #ffffff; font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">We could hear the emotions of regret and helplessness, which realate to emotions that we have felt.

<span style="background-color: #ffffff; font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: 1.1em;">Rosewood, Florida
<span style="background-color: #ffffff; font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">When did this event occur? Rosewood, Florida <span style="background-color: #ffffff; font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">What was the incident that started the riot? The Rosewood Massacre began because some white women were supposedly raped by an African-American, so the people of the town started burning buildings and attacking all blacks. <span style="background-color: #ffffff; font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">What happened to those responsible for starting the riot (if anything)? None of these people got arrested, and none were punished. <span style="background-color: #ffffff; font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">Any additional facts that you find important:No blacks ever returned to this town, because of this event, and after 60 years, the event was finally published for occurring. <span style="background-color: #ffffff; font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">Personal reactions of group members to this person: This event shouldn't have happened, and the whites shouldn't have blamed all African-Americans for one person (if this rape even happened at all...)

Exercise

1.

a. The first impression of this image is of unfairness to the Indians, whose treatment should not be stood for.

b. At first glance, you see the racial sign against Indians, then the American paraphernalia.

2. The picture means that everyone is an American, but only if they are white.

b. This picture was taken in Montana, in 1941, where the people there were very against indians, and the photographer wished to capture this.

3. Caption: Americans are only American if they're white!

a. Actual caption: "Signs behind the bar."

<span style="background-color: #ffffff; font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">Personal reactions of group members to this person: This is unfair, as well as unjust, and just expands a stereotype!
