Answer:

There were essentialy three strategies

  • Judicial strategies: this consists in suing a school, person, institution, or even state, on the basis that a civil right was violated. These kind of cases often led to landmark decisions by the U.S. Supreme Court such as Brown v. Board of Education.
  • Civil protests: This were peaceful protests, mostly led by students in the South, who demanded for civil rights such as the right of black people to enter any college that they wished.

Intellectual discusion: intellectuals like Martin Luther King, and decades before, W. Du Bois, wrote articles and books, and gave speeches where they gave arguments that supported civil rights for everyone.

The conditions in the South during Reconstruction

Even though Southern states rejoined the Union and agreed to the 13th amendment (which outlawed the institution of slavery), the South looked very similar to what it did before the Civil War started. Even though African Americans were technically free, many of them still worked on plantations. There work on plantations was under the system known as sharecropping. Sharecropping is a system in which a person leases land from a farm owners. In return, the worker promises to give land owners a share of their crop. This system resulted in strict labor contracts. Ultimately, this system would tie African Americans to plantations as plantation owners used loopholes within the contract to keep their tenants from finding other opportunities.

Along with this, African Americans were still treated horribly in the South. The development of the Ku Klux Klan, a white supremacist organization, resulted in the beating and killing of thousands of African American citizens. This group was created in order to strike fear in the hearts of African American citizens and to prevent them from using their newly gained rights (like the right for men to vote).

Lastly, the South would continue to treat African Americans as inferior by the implementation of black codes and Jim Crow laws. These laws allowed for the development of segregated public and private facilities.

How did muhhmad viewed religion
olga_2 [115]
Mohammed made explicit calls to treat people of other monotheistic faiths as brothers and sisters in religion. The most famous is the hadith where he asked Christians and Jews to pray alongside him in the mosque (even if they had no intention of converting to Islam). It is important to note, however, that he did not extend this tolerant attitude to the pagans, polytheists, and spirit doctors that he encountered throughout Arabia. Therefore, although he was incredibly tolerant for his period in history, he would not be considered tolerant by modern standards
