Schools were segregated from the end of the Civil War, and most churches were separate. In practice, some public places such as restaurants were becoming segregated, although no laws required separation. Th e U.S. Congress had passed a Civil Rights Act in 1875, which made discrimination in public places illegal. But in the 1880s, in a series of cases called the “civil rights cases,” the Supreme Court had said that, while the government could not discriminate, it could not prevent owners of private businesses from deciding who they would serve. Th at had opened the door to segregation in public spaces. Section 1: African Americans and Segregation 473 Jim Crow Laws Th roughout the 1890s and early 1900s, both the state of Georgia and local communities passed laws and ordinances calling for segrega- tion, or Jim Crow laws. Th e term Jim Crow had been used in the mid-1800s for a type of black character in minstrel shows. White performers blackened their faces and sang and danced in a way that made fun of African Americans. Th e term became a racial slur. “Jim Crow” was fi rst connected to segregation in the North before the Civil War. There some railroad cars were segregated and called Jim Crow cars. Th e term survived and became the nickname for the new laws that southern states passed to create a second-class, separate, and inferior position for African Americans. Jim Crow laws were somewhat like the early Black Codes that southern states had tried to en- act right after the Civil War. Th ose had been disal- lowed during military Reconstruction. Before the passage of Jim Crow laws, customs and intimida- tion had already created a system of white supe- riority in Georgia and other southern states. Jim Crow laws made the practice of segregation legal.

This photograph taken in 1886 shows an African American Plessy v. Ferguson neighborhood in Savannah. Railroad cars were among the public spaces that states segregated. Geor- gia passed such a law in 1891. A similar Louisiana law was challenged on purpose by African Americans who thought it was unconstitutional under the Fourteenth Amendment. Homer Plessy (who was one-eighth African American and seven-eighths white in heritage) challenged the Louisiana law after he was removed from a fi rst-class railroad car. In the famous 1896 Plessy v. Ferguson decision, the U.S. Supreme Court ruled that public places could be separate by race, but that they had to be “equal.” Th is separate- The Plessy decision was but-equal doctrine allowed segregation to continue in the United States eventually overturned, for decades. but not until 1954. Supreme Court Justice John Marshall Harlan disagreed with the Plessy v. Ferguson decision. He wrote that if the Supreme Court allowed separate train cars, it could lead to many other areas of segregation. He was right. With the separate-but-equal doctrine approved by the Supreme Court, southern states began enacting dozens of state laws and local ordinances to create separate public spaces from cradle to grave, from separate schools and libraries to separate cemeteries. Racial segregation became established by law and

As a US Congressman and Senator from Georgia and leader of the Populists Political Party, Tom Watson helped support Georgia’s poor and struggling farmers. He created the RFD (Rural Free Delivery) which helped deliver US mail to people living in rural areas that helped build roads and bridges. Tom Watson opposed (was against) the New South movement and many of the conservative Democrat politicians. He believed that new industry in the South only helped people living in urban areas and did not benefit rural farmers. Early in his career Tom Watson tried to help both white AND black sharecroppers, but later in politics he became openly racist. COUNTY UNIT SYSTEM Elections were decided by a unit vote and not by a popular vote of the people. The population in each county determined how many unit votes a candidate would receive. There were 8 Urban counties that had the most population, but they only received six unit votes each. There were 30 Town counties that received four unit votes each. Finally, there were 121 Rural counties that received 2 unit votes each. This allowed small rural counties to have a lot of power in politics, however, the majority of the population of Georgia resided in Urban and Town counties.

The effect of this on-going, scholarly ‘explosion’, in which both black and white historians are actively engaged, is both manifold and wide-reaching for in illuminating myriad aspects of African American life and culture from the colonial period to the very recent past it is simultaneously, and inevitably, enriching our understanding of the entire fabric of American social, economic, cultural and political history. Perhaps not surprisingly the depth and breadth of coverage received by particular topics and time-periods has so far been uneven.

  • Documenting Democracy
    DOCUMENTING DEMOCRACY 1964-2004 National Historical Publications & Records Commission George Washington at the outposts of Valley Forge. The University of Virginia is publishing a comprehensive edition of the papers written by or to the Revolutionary War general and first President of the United States. 2 Forty years ago in November 1964, the National Historical Publications Records Commission awarded its first grants for projects to further public understanding of American history, democracy, and culture. That remarkable day was the culmination of over 140 years of debate over the proper role of the national government in preserving and making public our documentary heritage. The Commission was founded in 1934 as part of the National Archives, but for most of those early years, because of the Depression and World War II, it rarely met. In 1950 President Harry S. Truman received a copy of the first volume of the Papers of Thomas Jefferson, and was so impressed that he urged the Commission to discuss in earnest the needs of the field, particularly in regard to historical publications. In the early 1960s, Congress and the Kennedy administration took the next evolutionary step in appropriating actual funds for the purposes of awarding grants. By 1974, the Commission began funding state and local archival projects, and to date, it has awarded over 4,000 grants and $163 million for projects across the country. The idea behind Federal funding is to make the Commission a true bridge between the archives and records held by the Federal Government at the National Archives and the records and collections of the states, municipalities, and nongovernmental organizations across the nation, and indeed, around the world.
