All citizens were forced to use separate drinking fountains, theaters, parks, restaurants, schools, cemeteries, and pretty much any normal, everyday activity. They were also forced to sit in the back of the bus. Bus drivers had to enforce the rule "whites in the front, blacks in the back". As more white citizens boarded the bus, black citizens had to stand in the back to allow white citizens to stand. Overall, black citizens were seen as inferior because of these laws.  ]]> 2017-11-01 09:02:18 UTC https://padlet.com/ep35567/nir0fuxovof9/wish/202413593 nw44487 https://padlet.com/ep35567/nir0fuxovof9/wish/202414750 These laws were enforced locally by signs. Signs would indicate what was for white citizens and what was for "colored" citizens. Many vigilante groups would harass and even kill black citizens. An example of a vigilante group is the Klu Klux Klan (KKK). ]]> 2017-11-01 09:11:04 UTC https://padlet.com/ep35567/nir0fuxovof9/wish/202414750 nw44487 https://padlet.com/ep35567/nir0fuxovof9/wish/202416144 The term "Jim Crow" originated from a popular dance in the 1820s. Along with the popular dance, there was an old song featuring a black character named Jim Crow. From the dance and song, the name for these laws was formed. ]]> 2017-11-01 09:19:24 UTC https://padlet.com/ep35567/nir0fuxovof9/wish/202416144 nw44487 https://padlet.com/ep35567/nir0fuxovof9/wish/202416676 Yes, eventually they were. Many protests to these laws took place. President Truman promoted racial equality among the U.S. citizens. He urged for poll tax and fair voting and hiring practices. Obviously, some southern states protested his actions. However, his actions didn't resolve the racism in the United States. ]]> 2017-11-01 09:22:25 UTC https://padlet.com/ep35567/nir0fuxovof9/wish/202416676
