African Americans faced many problems during the post-Reconstruction Era when their rights were being taken away. They weren't allowed to use the same facilities as whites because they were presented with "equal" ones. Even when they were given the right to vote, literacy tests, poll taxes, and Grandfather Clauses took it away from them. Sharecropping and tenant farming always left African Americans in debt to the landowner. On top of all of this, the organization known as the Ku Klux Klan (KKK) were terrorizing African Americans.
2. "Jim Crow" laws were laws segregating blacks from whites. 
3. The decision in Plessy v. Ferguson was that the Supreme Court gave a true example of how blacks and whites were separated, but definitely were not equal. Even though black facilities were said to be just as good as white facilities, it was obvious that whites had the better options. ]]> 2016-11-17 14:09:39 UTC https://padlet.com/jsalyers/secondperiod/wish/138399578 https://padlet.com/jsalyers/secondperiod/wish/138399885 -Some demands that laborers wanted were to end child labor, make specific shifts and hours, medical coverage , worker's compensations, etc. 

-The federal government and businesses feared the labor movements because they thought that work and production would become stagnant and they also feared giving all the employees these benefits and luxuries that they didn't have to sacrifice before. Government would go as far as killing and jailing some rioters and businesses would likely replace you if you were on strike. 

-Laissez-faire policies have to do with minimal government influence on the national economy

For example, slaves were allowed to get educations, and they were also sharecropping. Sharecropping is a form of agriculture in which a landowner allows a tenant to use the land in return for a share of the crops produced on their portion of land. Some former slaves used what they called tenant Farming. Tenant Farming is when they paid rent to use the land for crops.]]> 2016-11-17 14:14:18 UTC https://padlet.com/jsalyers/secondperiod/wish/138401795 https://padlet.com/jsalyers/secondperiod/wish/138401990 2016-11-17 14:14:39 UTC https://padlet.com/jsalyers/secondperiod/wish/138401990 https://padlet.com/jsalyers/secondperiod/wish/138693445 Roosevelt: Newlands Act, the Hepburn Act, and the Meat Inspection Act.
