Question

Chronicle the process that developed in the South of chipping away the freedoms granted to blacks during Reconstruction. Give careful consideration to how the Civil War was remembered by white America. By 1900, what conditions did African-Americans in the South face? How did they respond to these conditions?

Answer 1

After Reconstruction, the South chipped away at the freedoms that Blacks had gained by enacting Jim Crow laws and using intimidation.

By 1900, African-Americans were heavily marginalized in the South and responded by setting up their own structures and coming up with a unique way of life.

What happened after Reconstruction?

After Reconstruction ended, the South acted quickly to curtail the rights that Black people made when they passed laws that subjugated Black people through Jim Crow and unequal voting laws.

As a result, Black people became heavily marginalized and had no say in the running of the South. They therefore came up with their own way of life, and avoided conflict with Southern Whites.
