For many years, African-Americans had been treated as slaves or subsidiary to whites. Even after blacks were hypothetically supposed to have been granted freedom and equality (Plessy v. Ferguson), blacks found themselves in a world of segregation and inequitable standards. African-Americans began stand up for equality after the first steps of desegregation in the military and defense. The Civil Rights Movement did not fail because blacks never loosened the grip on the fight for equality, even though blacks were harshly treated, and in some cases with brutal violence and murder, but blacks pushed for civil rights throughout the movement until the goal was reached at last. Each event throughout the course of the Civil Rights Movement contributed to the impetus for protests and served an important purpose that many African-Americans will never forget.
For hundreds of years African Americans have faced racial discrimination in the United States. Over and over again contracts were made that gave them hope of equality such as the Emancipation Proclamation, the 14th and 15th amendment, and the end of the separate but equal law. However, they were continuously refused the basic rights that they were promised and were still forcefully separated from whites. Racist police and white supremacists evoked fear in African American men and women who attempted to participate in the rights they were entitled to. Then, in the 1950s and 60s there was a spark of interminable protesting of the clear racial injustices that the African American people faced, this time was known as the Civil Rights Movement.
Throughout history blacks have always struggled with getting the basic civil rights. blacks always tried to escape segregation by showing acts of defiance, big street riots and really big protests. Then whites that thought blacks should have rules to follow made the Jim Crow laws in 1877. Which stated that blacks could not go in certain areas that are marked off for whites, and they had to be followed by the blacks or they would get punished. It limited the physical and economic freedom of blacks (Anderson 8).
With reconstruction blacks were slowly but surely being given the basic rights that they deserved. However, just because blacks were finally granted rights, doesn't mean they were granted respect. Most southerners still carried a deep hatred for blacks and in most cases did not stop at any lengths to make it apparent. During
during the civil rights movement there was a lot of chaos going on. People back then were treated differently due to segregation. The african american people tried fighting for their rights to have the same equality as the white people had. any african american tried making history by either going to an all white school or getting their rights to vote.
Black Racism In the US in the 1950´s In the 1950´s the US was full of racism. This era was after the Civil War, which eradicated slavery, but especially in the Southern United States there was still a lot of racism. Many events and lawsuits started advocating for the black rights and black movement rights started to protest for better conditions in the US. People such as Rosa Parks and Martin Luther King Jr. started to fight against black racism.
Civil Rights Prejudice During the civil rights movements, many groups stepped up to fight for equality for their group with the goal that “when future generations ask what we did in this crisis, we’re going to have to tell them... [that] after we kick[ed] the s**t out of the disease, we [were] all alive to kick the s**t out of [the] system, so that [it] never happene[d] again” (Russo). Vito Russo made it clear in his speech that they were going to unite and overcome discrimination from outsiders. After World War II, the nation that was united fell back into the discrimination they had within.
Our society has been subject to different forms of injustice for hundreds of years, such as slavery followed by decades segregation and discrimination. Discrimination is a common thread in the United States throughout the years, and even though slavery has ended, discrimination continues today in many forms. People who have felt discriminated against have responded in many ways from the Civil Rights Movement of the 1950s and 1960s to the Black Lives Matter movement of today. Los Angeles in the 1990s was still a place of segregation that led to discrimination and racial tension. The Los Angeles riots (or the Rodney King riots) in 1992, were another painful but eye opening event in the long fight for justice.
Current Racism in America The Civil Rights movement brought segregation to a general close but many people have the illusion that it ended all racism when in actuality, racism is still very much a problem in this country even though it is kept under wraps and disguised. It only keeps progress from occurring and limits the social progression of a society that is expected to be great. Denial of the issue doesn’t mean it does not exist. While men and women of all colors can now drink from the same fountain, they are not safe from institution discrimination or even dirty looks from their peers.
Do people discriminate others to hurt them or they do not realize what their actions are doing? Racial discrimination is when a person is treated less favorably than another person in a similar situation because of their race, colour, descent, national or ethnic origin or immigrant status. One of the biggest discrimination in this country is racial discrimination towards Latinos and people of color. Racial discrimination has become a part of everyday life in America. We have to stop this hatred in our country because this country is based on freedom, peace, and home of immigrants.
Civil rights was the most important reform during 1945 and 1980. The civil rights movement was a movement fighting for African-Americans equality, privileges, and rights. The Movement was centered around the injustice of African -Americans in the South. African American faced racial inequality, lack of economic opportunity, and unfairness in the political and legal processes. In the late 19th century, state and local governments imposed restrictions on voting qualifications which left the African community economically and politically powerless and passed segregation laws, known as Jim Crow laws.
America in the 1950s was a time of considerable conflict. Racial issues like discrimination was a fight African Americans had been fighting against for a long time. There were inequality and injustice among the people just because they were born with a different coloured skin. The American Dream, which promises democracy and equality for everyone, does not seem to include everyone per se, to segregate instead of integrate. However, it seems with the American popular culture, such as baseball and music, the possibility of integration sounds more achievable.
The Civil Rights movement transformed American society in the 1950s & 60s. What were the social, economic, political foundations of the movement? What judicial, political, or legislative strategies were adopted to accomplish its goals? How/why were they successful?
In some historical periods when man has been desperate for solutions, men of the cloth have always come up to lead a struggle as important and as moral as any can be. The preacher from Alabama, Martin Luther King Jr. was one such person. His leadership and that of other personalities enhanced the very development of the Civil rights movements that challenged one of the greatest obstacles that NAACP faced. This was the segregation laws that continued to deny the black man the benefit of the American dream. However, to Martin Luther King, it was not a question of the blacks alone, but a question of every person who was denied their rightful place in the United States present and history because of the color of their skin.
