There were several different restrictions placed on blacks due to the Jim Crow laws. The following are just a couple examples.

1) Poll taxes- This was a certain amount of money an individual would have to pay in order to vote. This negatively effected African-Americans, as many of them could not afford this tax.

2) Literacy tests- These were written tests that individuals had to pass in order to vote. These were extremely difficult to do well on, due to the wording of the question or the time given to complete the test. This targeted African-Americans, as many of them had no formal schooling as of this time period.

3) Segregated public facilities- Everything from public schools to public pools were segregated in order to keep blacks and whites away from each other.

What is ironic about the following passage from narrative of the life of fredrick Douglass in 1832
WINSTONCH [101]

Answer: His master is crueler after finding religion than he was before.

Explanation:

Douglas considered his master as a cruel man. His master once went out for a christian camp meeting and in the course of the meeting, he surrendered his life to Christ. Due to this, Douglass hoped that this religious transformation would result in his master being less cruel toward his slaves, and this didn't turn out to be the case, rather the master became more cruel.

This is an irony, because Douglass experienced the opposite of his expectation. An irony is the expression of one's meaning by the use of language which normally signifies the opposite, usually for emphatic or humorous effect.
