The Black Codes laws put in place in the United States after the
Civil War Limited the basic human rights and civil
liberties of black citizens living in the South varied from state to state they each attempted to secure a steady supply
of cheap labor and continued to assume the inferiority of the freed slaves
![Page 28: The Rise and Fall of Jim Crow](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062822/58858eed1a28ab84668b69f5/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
Extra Info: Black Codes The black codes had their roots in the slave
codes that had formerly been in effect The Black Codes granted African Americans
certain rights, such as legalized marriage, ownership of property, and limited access to the courts.
But the Black Codes denied them the rights to testify against whites, to serve on juries or in state militias, or to vote, and express legal concern publicly
![Page 29: The Rise and Fall of Jim Crow](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062822/58858eed1a28ab84668b69f5/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
Voting Restrictions Poll tax- many sharecroppers were too poor
to pay the tax Grandfather clause- said if their grandfather
was eligible to vote before 1867 they could vote- restricted blacks from voting since freed slaves at that time could not vote
Literacy test- had to pass a test before voting
![Page 30: The Rise and Fall of Jim Crow](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062822/58858eed1a28ab84668b69f5/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
Why would people in the South not want African Americans voting?

Jim Crow etiquette norms: A black male could not offer his hand (to shake hands) with a
white male because it implied being socially equal.
Blacks and whites were not supposed to eat together. If they did eat together, whites were to be served first, and some sort of partition was to be placed between them.
Under no circumstance was a black male to offer to light the cigarette of a white female--that gesture implied intimacy.
![Page 33: The Rise and Fall of Jim Crow](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062822/58858eed1a28ab84668b69f5/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
Blacks were not allowed to show public affection toward one another in public, especially kissing, because it offended whites.
Jim Crow etiquette required that blacks were introduced to whites, never whites to blacks. For example: "Mr. Peters (the white person), this is Charlie (the black person), that I spoke to you about."
Whites did not use courtesy titles of respect when referring to blacks, for example, Mr., Mrs., Miss., Sir, or Ma'am. Instead, blacks were called by their first names.
If a black person rode in a car driven by a white person, the black person sat in the back seat or the back of a truck.
![Page 34: The Rise and Fall of Jim Crow](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062822/58858eed1a28ab84668b69f5/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
Stetson Kennedy, the author of Jim Crow Guide, offered these simple rules that blacks were supposed to observe in conversing with whites:
Never claim that a white person is lying.
Never allege dishonorable intentions to a white person.
Never suggest that a white person is from an inferior class.
Never lay claim to, or overly demonstrate, superior knowledge or intelligence.
Never curse a white person.
Never laugh derisively at a white person.
Never comment upon the appearance of a white female.

Plessy v. Ferguson (1896)
"The object of the [Fourteenth] Amendment was undoubtedly to enforce the absolute equality of the two races before the law, but in the nature of things it could not have been intended to abolish distinctions based upon color, or to enforce social, as distinguished from political, equality, or a commingling of the two races upon terms unsatisfactory to either. . .
“We consider the underlying fallacy of the plaintiff's argument to consist in the assumption that the enforced separation of the two races stamps the colored race with a badge of inferiority. If this be so, it is not by reason of any-thing found in the act, but solely because the colored race chooses to put that construction upon it. "
“In my opinion, the judgment this day rendered will, in time, prove to be quite as pernicious as the decision made by this tribunal in the Dred Scott case.”
—Justice Harlan, dissenting

Why nonviolence?• Ethical view: Pacifism• Violence does not work• Violence is incompatible
with the appeal to conscience
![Page 84: The Rise and Fall of Jim Crow](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062822/58858eed1a28ab84668b69f5/html5/thumbnails/84.jpg)
Do ethical arguments make any difference?How moral argument might lead to social change:The people making the argument keep things stirred up, so that . . .The only way to settle things down--and keep society running peacefully--is to grant the point and make the required changes; and . . .The majority are willing to concede the ethical point, however, grudgingly. Then,The change is made.

controversial
