Free African Americans were allowed to hold low paid jobs during the 1840s and 1850s.

Explanation:

Slavery prevailed during the period of 1840s and 1850s. Though African Americans were freed after the emancipation proclamation, there were black codes that were establish which curtailed the opportunities for the African Americans to hold highly paid jobs.

Though they were skilled craftsmen and artisans, they were considers to be professional rivals against the whites and hence they were given low paid jobs. They were employed as barbers, but many blacks when denied jobs had opened gambling houses and started to earn in an illegal manner. They were also working in laundry and many were paddlers.

Gennadij [26K]

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

The event I've learned about that could be viewed as a fight for human or civil rights is the Montgomery Bus Boycott and the founding of the SCLC, the Southern Christian Leadership Conference. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. was one of the founders of this important group.

Complimentary information.-

The Montgomery Bus Boycott started on December 5, 1955, when African American woman Rosa Parks was arrested by the Montgomery Police because she was seated in the white section of the bus and refused to give her seat to a white man.

On January 10, 1957. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. became the first President of the Southern Christian Leadership Conference (SCLC), whose headquarters were in Atlanta, Georgia.
