The NAACP, or National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, is an old and influential organization that seeks to protect the civil rights of minorities, especially the black population of the United States.
It was founded at the beginning of the twentieth century in 1909 with the sole purpose of fighting for the rights of African Americans, working mainly in the area of education and the judiciary, with respect to protecting this minority of racist laws, such as Jim Crow, which intended to deprive blacks of possessing civil rights.
Nowadays, the term "colored" is seem as outdated and obsolet by a great quota of the population, that prefers the terms "afro-american", "african-american" or "black".
One of the different working conditions of slaves in the antebellum south was that these quarters consisted of a large grouping of rudely made cabins. Within these slave barracks, black families began to seize, hold, and extended families slowly gained approval for living together within the same homestead. This provided for the cultivation and flourishment of the black community. Southern slaves also tasted a small dose of freedom when allowed to plant and manage their own, small cash crops. This added to the home realm in which black life and expression overrode white intervention. The home began to represent more than just a form of shelter... it became the haven for the development of the African-American experience
Another one of the different working conditions of slaves in the Antebellum south was that many owners had experienced such runaway rates and unsettled behavior from their male slaves that they were forced to begin to buy more females, even though they were not considered as a valuable commodity. The main reason for the purchasing of slave woman had definitely been for reasons that involved the slaveholder's sexual desires rather than the female's economic potential. But slave masters soon began to buy an equal amount of black women and men for their plantations in order to ensure families and hence stable slave behavior. A married male slave had more responsibility to his mate and children and therefore would be more deterred from trying to escape.
