Even though racial segregation existed throughout the U.S. during the 1950's; in the south, southern states had a much more difficult time letting go of Jim Crow.
 * Thesis statement**

What is going on in the picture is, the little boy is being questioned about where his father is because the maidservant in the back of the picture hiding behind the woman has told the panel of Parliaments about the boys father breaking the law. The man in the corner holding a box almost blending in to the wall is the man who threatened the maidservant to tell on the family, or he would get her in trouble because he was mad at the father from years before because the father had gotten him in trouble with the parliament for stealing. The little girl in the picture is crying because she is scared of what the Parliament is going to do to her father because she knows that her brother is not afraid of them and he will tell them where there father is. The man holding on to the little girl is a sergeant that has brought the family here for questioning, and the man behind the desk asking the little boy questions, is the interrogator but he feels bad for the little boy because he doesn’t think it is fair to put him in this situation at such a young age. The man on the couch is a cavalry officer and is interested in the boys interrogation because he has seen the family around town before and what’s to no what is going to happen to them.

 * The political, economic, and social conditions that lead to the political revolutions in the first global age.**

The political, economic, and social conditions that lead to the political revolutions in the first global age can be answered when broken down into four parts. What happened in the beginning of the first global age is that people began realizing that they deserved rights, because they could have more stability with a form of government. Simon Bolivar was known as the South America’s “George Washington”, because of what he did for the continent. His vision of the America’s was that the America’s should say as one large united continent instead of breaking up into separate places, and owning separate pieces of land, which was the leading political problem leading to the first global age. The economic problems in this era where the relationship between population and land ownership, which was one of the causes of the French Revolution because, France had spend too much money on the war, and land ownership throughout France was not equal, and the Fourth Estate had the highest population, highest taxes, but the least amount of land, while the wealthy people had the most land, and the lowest taxes. The social conditions that where a part of the chain reaction set off by Enlightenment ideas was when people started to really pick up books, and learning about other cultures in England during the seventeenth century, eventually spreading throughout the world and people started to truly understand what was happening in the world around them, and this time period became known as the age of enlightenment. The ideas that Thomas Jefferson copied from John Locke are in the Decleration of Independence Thomas Jefferson wrote, “unalienable rights, that among these are life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness” which John Locke had inspired years before. John Locke was a big influence on many of Thomas Jefferson's philsophical thoughts and ideals.


 * Final Draft Segregation Essay**
 * Outline**

Racial segregation in the United States during the 1950’s was unconstitutional, so why did they allow it? That question today is still unanswered. It not only separated people from living their daily lives, it also stopped children from attending school, and leaving their houses to go out in public when even the general stores where known as “separate but equal” and and the danger of not being excepted was lurking around every corner. Five African American males, Nease Gillepsie, John Gillepsie, "Jack" Dillingham, Henry Lee, and George Irwin were hanged from trees in Salisbury, North Carolina in 1906 just because they where African Americans, with onlookers watching them be hanged to death, people took pictures of their corpses and were later printed on postcards. Thesis: Even though racial segregation existed throughout the U.S. during the 1950’s, in the south, southern states had a much more difficult time letting go of Jim Crow. Jim Crow At the end of Reconstruction in 1877 southern states passed Jim Crow laws such as 1887 Florida was the first state to require blacks and whites to ride separately in railroad cars. Other southern states followed that requirement such as Mississippi in 1888, Texas in 1889, Louisiana in 1890, Alabama, Arkansas, Georgia, and Tennessee in 1891, and Kentucky in 1892. The Louisiana law, “An Act to Promote the Comfort of Passengers,” required equal but separate accommodations for people of each race. Jim Crow was a color barrier preventing blacks from participating in multiple activities with whites. Jim Crow laws ensured that African Americans where treated harshly and where focused on lowering the status of African Americans in society. People of different nationalities were know longer equal and whites were thought of as better, and blacks were treated unfairly. Plessy v. Ferguson The 1896 landmark of Plessy V. Ferguson was a United States Supreme Court decision and theory of the United States that maintained the constitutionality of racial segregation in public residence’s such as railroads, under the doctrine of “separate but equal.” What the government didn’t see was that it violated the Equal Protection Clause, which is part of the Fourteenth Amendment in the United States Constitution and the court over looked it but Plessy v. Ferguson was over ruled by Brown v. Board of Education in 1954. South v. North The North and South during the 1800’s were like two separate countries because of the split in different beliefs when it came to slavery and segregation. They did have some similarities though when it came to social and economic conditions. The economy at this time was growing stronger and expanding, but that was about all the two regions had in common besides sharing the same president and flag. In the South the base in the economy is different in the North because the South produces cotton, while the North is based on manufacturing. The South did not manufacture goods and were forced to purchase finished products from the North, and by doing that it added to the North’s economy. Using the southern states money, the North would purchase cotton from the South. Also, in the South, there were little job opportunities for whites since slaves had the jobs in the field, unlike the North where jobs were abundant in factories for the unskilled workers. Many of these unskilled workers were immigrants from Ireland and Germany. By 1830 By 1830 slavery had nearly been destroyed but in the 1820s the country was having difficulty following President Thomas Jefferson’s idea of equality. Many states were taking away African American rights. In the North, slavery was almost non-existent by 1930, although strong racial bias among non-slave holding states encouraged segregation in public spaces, transportation, education, distinct residential housing, medical care, and even in death. (LIST, SARAH. "Segregation, Racial, 1816–1900".) Revolutionary War, and War of 1812 Although the traditional belief taught all across the colonies white’s were of higher quality, African Americans still fought side by side in Military units with whites in the Revolutionary War, and the War of 1812. (LIST, SARAH. "Segregation, Racial, 1816–1900". On August 25,1862 with the conclusion made to use the African American populations for service in the Civil War regiments, segregated units. (LIST, SARAH. "Segregation, Racial, 1816–1900".) The 54th Massachusetts Infantry, 35th United States Colored Troops in the Army and over 10,000 black sailors and pilots in the Federal Navy. In engaged territories U.S. generals utilized the African American population for skilled labor such as, scouts and spies, cooks, nurses, and gravediggers. After the war, four black regiments remained in federal service. (LIST, SARAH. "Segregation, Racial, 1816–1900"). KKK The KKK is a secret society of white Southerners in the United States that was formed in the 19th century to resist the emancipation of slaves and used terrorist tactics to suppress Black people. Nathan Bedford Forrest was the leader of the first Ku Klux Klan group in 1865 to 1870. Nathan was a lieutenant general in the Confederate Army during the American Civil War. The KKK’s second generation was from 1915 to 1944, and the 3rd and present generation has been around since 1946. Black Codes Black Codes are a series of state laws passed by southern legislatures immediately following the Civil War, black codes restricted the rights of African Americans. South Carolina and Mississippi first instituted black codes in late 1865, although most other former Confederate states soon enacted similar laws. (Krowl, Michelle A. "Black Codes." Civil Rights in the United States. Ed. Waldo E. Martin, Jr and Patricia Sullivan. New York: Macmillan) Black Codes caused severe restrictions against African American freed slaves in the South and prohibited their right to vote, forbidding them to sit on juries, limiting their right to testify against white men, carrying weapons in public places and working in certain occupation. School Segregation In 1849 Benjamin Roberts filed a lawsuit after his five year old daughter Sara was turned down by a primary school that was close to her home “on the ground of her being a colored person” stated in Peter Irons book “Jim Crow’s Children,” Sarah’s fathers lawsuit was the first challenge to racial segregation in public schools, and ended in defeat. The Massachusetts Supreme Judicial Court ruled that Sarah’s interests “will best be promoted” by forcing her to attend a Jim Crow school. A case also ended in defeat was for Kalima Jenkins and other black children in Kansas City, Missouri. Ruling in 1995, the United Sates Supreme Court terminated judicial oversight of the “re-segregated” school district in which the vast majority of students were black and conditions so bad that one school principal “stated that he would not send his own child to that facility.” Conclusion The southern states had a much more difficult time letting go of Jim Crow because throughout history southern states can take a lot more responsibility for keeping slavery and segregation alive much more than northern states have credibility for. Wether it was the case of Plessy V. Ferguson in 1896 when it violated the Equal Protection Clause, which is part of the Fourteenth Amendment in the United States Constitution and the court over looked it, or when Black Codes restricted the rights of African Americans and caused a series of state laws to pass by southern legislatures immediately after they came about. Also in 1849 when Benjamin Roberts filed a lawsuit after his five year old daughter Sarah was turned down by a primary school and later the court decided that Sarah would have to go to a Jim Crow school, and later even a principle stated that he would never send his own child to a Jim Crow facility. The northern part of the country has not had nearly as much to do with discrimination against African Americans as the southern parts of the United States have, and it is only justifiable to say that the South had a more difficult time letting go of Jim Crow than the North because through out time the South has much greater amounts history with slavery, and segregation.
