The term “Jim Crow” typically refers to repressive laws and customs once used to restrict black rights, but the origin of the name itself actually dates back to before the Civil War. In the early 1830s, the white actor Thomas Dartmouth “Daddy” Rice was propelled to stardom for performing minstrel routines as the fictional “Jim Crow,” a caricature of a clumsy, dimwitted black slave. Rice claimed to have first created the character after witnessing an elderly black man singing a tune called “Jump Jim Crow” in Louisville, Kentucky. He later appropriated the Jim Crow persona into a minstrel act where he donned blackface and performed jokes and songs in a stereotypical slave dialect. For example, “Jump Jim Crow” included the popular refrain, “Weel about and turn about and do ‘jis so, eb’ry time I weel about I jump Jim Crow.” Rice’s minstrel act proved a massive hit among white audiences, and he later took it on tour around the United States and Great Britain. As the show’s popularity spread, “Jim Crow” became a widely used derogatory term for blacks.]]> 2017-09-13 23:49:20 UTC https://padlet.com/1041621/uai3tiazgwtf/wish/187382996 Definition of the Jim Crow laws 1041621 https://padlet.com/1041621/uai3tiazgwtf/wish/187383014

In Plessy v. Ferguson (1896), the Supreme Court considered the constitutionality of a Louisiana law passed in 1890 "providing for separate railway carriages for the white and colored races." The law, which required that all passenger railways provide separate cars for blacks and whites, stipulated that the cars be equal in facilities, banned whites from sitting in black cars and blacks in white cars (with exception to "nurses attending children of the other race"), and penalized passengers or railway employees for violating its terms. ]]> 2017-09-13 23:49:42 UTC https://padlet.com/1041621/uai3tiazgwtf/wish/187383035 Examples of 10 Jim Crow laws including images, states where they were applicable. 1041621 https://padlet.com/1041621/uai3tiazgwtf/wish/187383054

African-Americans were mainly affected in unpleasant ways and a few Caucasians too. Most Caucasians were fond of the way life was under Jim Crow Laws, but some white people thought it was not right because they felt African-Americans were equal to them. African-Americans did not like the way of life and wanted to do things to fix it, but usually when they tried they suffered severe consequences. ]]> 2017-09-13 23:50:05 UTC https://padlet.com/1041621/uai3tiazgwtf/wish/187383077 1041621 https://padlet.com/1041621/uai3tiazgwtf/wish/187394115 2017-09-14 01:13:58 UTC https://padlet.com/1041621/uai3tiazgwtf/wish/187394115 1041621 https://padlet.com/1041621/uai3tiazgwtf/wish/187394145 2017-09-14 01:14:10 UTC https://padlet.com/1041621/uai3tiazgwtf/wish/187394145 1041621 https://padlet.com/1041621/uai3tiazgwtf/wish/187394208 2017-09-14 01:14:32 UTC https://padlet.com/1041621/uai3tiazgwtf/wish/187394208
