During the great depression, Black people had been in the middle of a big progression of fighting for their rights. So with no freedom AND no money...they were at a big disadvantage.

Black people were battling for their rights during the Great Depression. Black people therefore had neither money nor rights during the Great Depression. Their community suffered severely as a result of that.

Reynolds said that Black people experienced "double Depression" because during the time Black people had no money and as we know due to segregation and racist powers, no freedom as well. White elites struck down Reconstruction, creating privileges for poor whites. Meaning as poor blacks lacked freedom, poor whites had privilege due to whiteness always being put first as long as they stood by racist ideas. Black people had no freedom and no money. Poor whites has no money but still had freedom and privilege.

Reynolds defines "Black safe spaces" as spaces that went against and resisted ongoing and new racist ideas, many that were presented by the media. Supporters fought against stereotypes such as black people being seen as hypersexual, black households absent of fathers, that this family dynamic made them inferior, and much more racist labels and ideas that were though as conventional in the white eyes. Black safe spaces were an anti racist idea.

While the great depression was happening Black people were experiencing extreme hardship, Reynolds says it was like a double depression for them because they didn't have any freedom and barely enough money to get by to support themselves.

During the Great Depression Black people were fighting for equal rights and against segregation. These conditions made them have a double depression because having no money is one thing but also having no freedom is much worse.

I believe that Reynolds said that Black people experienced a double depression while trying to seek equal rights. It was called double depression because Black people had to find equality while also facing, not having money and not having freedom.

Malcom X preached Black self sufficiency, and that Black people could care for themselves, their families, and their communities all by themselves. These ideas showed how he was pushing back against assimilationism and preaching black power.

Thoughts that made Malcom X antiracist were preaching " Black self-sufficiency, that Black People could care for themselves, their families, and their communities all by themselves " He had anti racist ideas, and thoughts and wanting Black people to know that they could be individual and live without caring about opinions of Whites.

When talking about Dr. King, Reynolds says that during parts of the civil right movement, the actions of King that were not violent being responded to by violent crimes in return was embarrassing for even the non-white and white community.

Reynolds expresses how black people experienced a double depression because they "it's another thing to have no money and no freedom". I agree with this statement because black people had to experience a lifetime of depressing mistreatment, but now they had to deal with the extreme poverty of the great depression.(black people were already marginalized and set back financially due to the generations of head start white people had during slavery and at the time, segregation.)

Scar

2024-11-05 21:40:04 UTC

The great depression was during when black people were still fighting for their rights. When the great depression happened black people were already being paid so much less and didnt have freedom yet, so the great depression was that much harder for them.

The civil rights act was addressed to the nation and was summoned congress to pass civil rights legislation. This was on June 11th by President John F. Kennedy. In John F. Kennedy's words, "We preach freedom around the world, and we mean it". This act was organized by civil rights groups but however the Kennedy administration controlled the event, ruling out civil disobedience. Overall this act was to stop the discrimination on race and other things.

Malcom X was an antiracist because he believed in black sufficiency and wanted others to follow.

Reynolds explained Dr. King's nonviolent tactics as being "embarrassing". Reynolds said this because Dr. King believed that trying to end racism non-violently was the correct way to approach the problem. The only problem with this was people who didn't like what King was fighting for responded violently. This embarrassed the country because it put the racism that was going on in the spotlight.

Angela Davis grew up in a racist world where she witnessed economic struggle and equality. Davis's mother was a lead of an antiracist organization that protested racial and economic disparities and her mother and farther raised her to be an antiracist. Davis saw her classmates struggle right before her eyes. This shows that the environment we grow up in shapes us as who we are and what we fight for. Angela saw the racism and poverty growing up and saw curiosity and fear, so she became an activist and educator to fight against it.

The reason as to why Reynolds said that black people experienced a double depression because USA's economy was tanking, so therefore black people had both no money and also no freedom.

William

What Reynolds means by “double depression” is how black people were experiencing the Great Depression while also living at a time were racism was an acceptable thing. They had to fight for equal rights while also living off little to no money.

Alexander

During the Great Depression, Black people faced extra challenges, going through what some call a “double depression.” Not only did they have little money, but they also had few rights and freedoms. This made things much harder for them than for others. While they were fighting for basic rights, they were also struggling to survive financially, which put them at a big disadvantage. As a result, Black communities suffered deeply during this time.

Ronii

DuBois became an antiracist socialist because he changed his views about Black people and equality. He no longer thought Black people needed to prove themselves to be accepted by white society.

In the book, Reynolds describes "Black safe spaces" as places where Black people came together to stand up against racism and harmful stereotypes. These spaces challenged unfair ideas, often spread by the media, like stereotypes about Black families and other racist beliefs that were common in white society. Black safe spaces were a way for people to fight back and prove these stereotypes wrong, creating a sense of antiracist resistance.

Reynolds says Dr. King’s nonviolent tactics were “embarrassing the country” because they showed the truth about racism in America. Even though Dr. King and his supporters used peaceful protests and sit-ins, they were often met with violence, especially from racist police. By staying nonviolent, they exposed how much racism was still in the country, proving that even peaceful actions were met with hate and brutality.

DuBois started separating himself from his original assimilationist ideas and start going against them. Instead of trying to “prove” your self to white people, he starting believing that black people should just be free. After taking some inspiration from Karl Marx he came up with the idea of “antiracist socialist”.

Dubois chose to became an antiracist socialist because he originally believed that black people needed to prove themselves to white people in order to be accepted. But then later on he separated himself from the idea that black people need to prove themselves to white people in order to be accepted. He believed everyone deserved equality and he fought for black people. So that they could benefit from things like Franklin Roosevelts new deal, and so they could have the same rights as white people.

I believe Malcom X was the most anti racist figures in the civil rights era. Malcom criticized Martin Luther King jr's non violent pretests and sit-ins because simply trying to integrate after decades of racial chattel slavery and segregation. Integrations would not hold white people accountable for the thousands of lynching's, beatings, murders, rejections and racist ideas they have ever done and had. Malcom X lead the black panther party that was established to create change in the systems that oppressed the black community, the difference between M.L.K.J and Malcom X is how Malcom would fix the system by and way possible. The black panther party's 10 point system perfectly establishes what the black community wants, i think most important points are 1,(8+9) and 10.

"1. We Want Freedom. We Want Power To Determine The Destiny Of Our Black Community. We believe that Black people will not be free until we are able to determine our destiny.

8. We Want Freedom For All Black Men Held In Federal, State, County and City Prisons and Jails.

We believe that all Black people should be released from the many jails and prisons because they have not received a fair and impartial trial.

9. We Want All Black People When Brought To Trial To Be Tried In Court By A Jury Of Their Peer Group Or People From Their Black Communities, As Defined By The Constitution Of The United States

10. We Want Land, Bread, Housing Education, Clothing, Justice And Peace."

The black panther party preaches self sufficiency and empowerment by any means. the reason why i think these points are the most important is because they want a fair trial of all black people, while freeing all black people who received unfair trial. They also wanted the freedom to determine their fate without the attack of police or government. The black panther especially wanted access to basic human rights like bread(food), housing, education and peace.

Christian H.C

2024-11-07 22:25:24 UTC

The reason why Reynolds says that black people experienced a "double depression" because they had been in the middle of fighting for their rights. So it was a "double depression" because they were fighting for their rights and since the great depression happened, they already didn't have their rights and then they lost their money, meaning they were vulnerable

Christian H.C

The beliefs that made Malcolm X anti racist was him preaching black self-sufficiency, that black people could care for themselves, their family and communities all by themselves. He wanted them to believe in that, these ideas showed how he was fighting the racist stereotypes and ideas.

DuBois choose to become an "antiracist socialist" because he was an antiracist socialist he wanted economic justice and policy change for Black people and he also wanted white people to respect the black people he wanted black to prove themselves to the whites because he wanted the black people to embrace their African heritage even if the white people would be against it.
