In the Plessy v. Ferguson Case (1896), the Supreme Court allowed the doctrine of "separate but equal" to continue stating that racially segregated public facilities were legal because they did not imply any inequality toward African Americans: they were consistent to the doctrine of "separate but equal." However, in reality, segregation laws did not provide equal protection or liberties to non-whites: the segregated facilities were unequal and violated the equal protection of the laws stated in the 14th Amendment.

The "Jim Crow" laws (1877-1950's) also discriminated against African-Americans, these were a series of restrictions on black civil right designed to prevent African Americans from gaining equality. The statutes prohibited African American to attend and be in certain places where white people were such as neighborhoods, restrooms, building entrances, elevators, cemeteries, amusement-park, cashier windows, hospitals, jails, etc.

Lastly, the Black Codes were laws passed in 1865 and 1866 after slavery was abolished, however, they are considered a form of slavery because they compelled African Americans to work for very low wages and legally considered them vagrants if they were found unemployed; besides if they were seen as vagrant, they could be arrested, fined, and bound out for a term of labor if unable to pay the fine.

Explanation:

1. I <u>agree </u>with the Sitting Bull's quote. It makes me feel a bit upset, Sitting Bull conveyed great emotion within the 8 sentence that are there.

2. I do <u>not </u>think western settlers could have coexisted with tribes they encountered due to how persistent Sitting Bull was for fighting for the Native American's freedom from the Western Settlers.

3. I do <u>not </u>think Native Americans should have been put on reservations. The Native Americans were there before the Western Settlers were, this is their land.

4. No, I do <u>not </u>think Native Americans should have adapted to settler ways. Native Americans have their own culture which the settlers should not intervene with.

5. The settlers and federal government was <u>not</u> within their rights to conquer Native Americans and take their homelands. The Native Americans have their own rights just as much the settlers did. The homelands were where they lived. They were not above the Native Americans.

in your opinion,how will WW2 help form or strengthen the civil rights movement during the 1960s for african american ?
masha68 [24]

After the World War II and all of the terrors witnessed through it on ethnic and racial basis, the international community was determined that something like that should never happen again, and that all humans are equal and deserve the same rights.

That benefited the African American population in the United States a lot, as they now had the basis and support with which they were able to push through to gain all of the rights they deserve, thus be equal with all of the rest. That led to the formation of multiple organizations for the rights of the African Americans, widespread propaganda, protests, and eventually it gave a positive result, with the African Americans gaining all of the rights they deserved, but also putting the racism aside in the American society.
