The Shadow of Segregation
The Shadow of Segregation
In the text," white people drink good clean water from the water fountain and black people had to drink old water from the water fountain and they had to separate Black people from the white people." This shows how White people got to do more stuff than black people.
In the text," The Civil War may have brought an end to slavery, but it didn't end racism." This shows how The Civil war did not know how to end racism.Â
In the text," That's why Rosa Parks kept her seat on the bus, and why Martin Luther King Jr. Led the March on washington, they didn't know why Jim Crow Laws were past they wanted to show that Jim Crow,Laws and segregation, were unfair," This shows how they did not want Jim Crow Laws to pass. In my own words it would not be segregation if Jim Crow Laws were allowed.
