The Jim Crow Era

Jim Crow Laws Some of these laws included: Poll taxes- fees for voting Literacy tests- tests that must be passed in order to vote Grandfather Clause- waives the literacy tests and poll taxes for those whose grandfathers voted in the past

The Jim Crow Era Many southern whites will intimidate African Americans with terror –The Ku Klux Klan –Lynching Many African Americans will seek better lives in northern states –The Great Migration- movement of southern blacks to northern cities

“Separate But Equal” In addition to state laws which block the 14 th and 15 th Amendments, in 1898, a court case will legally separate blacks and whites in the south Plessy vs. Ferguson- the Supreme Court ruled that the 14 th Amendment was not violated if equal accommodations were made for blacks and whites All over the country, separate facilities were made for blacks and whites, legally segregating society

Separate Facilities for Blacks and Whites
