Presentation transcript:

What was going on in the late 1800’s?  The Civil war was for the opportunity for African- American’s to vote, and give them a chance to have jobs. The white people were angry at the African-American’s for taking up all their jobs, so they lynched them and scapegoat was happening as well.

Who is Homer Plessy?  Homer Plessy was the American Creole plaintiff in the United States Supreme Court. He was arrested in New Orleans for one of Louisiana's racial segregation laws. The Separate Car Act. (3/17/1862-3/1/1925)

What does Creole of Color mean?  The Creole of Color is, “a term used to refer to black persons in New Orleans who traced some of their ancestors to the French, Spanish, and Caribbean settlers of Louisiana before it became part of the United States” (Richard Wormser P-1.) Homer plessy was considered a Creole of Color.

What was the purpose of “Separate but Equal” law?  White people felt like they were better than African- American’s so they decided to have separate laws which meant that most public places were divided for Whites and African-American’s.

What were the reactions of white people when they heard about the law?  Whites were disappointed at the fact that African- American’s were considered equal as whites, because the constitution was color blind which was equality for everyone. LOL 

How did this affect African- American people at that time?  The way this affected African-American’s was when Rosa Parks stood up for what she believed in, which was equality for everyone disregarding their race or color, just like the constitution said it was Color blind.  She sat in the front of a bus which was only meant for whites to sit on, therefore she was arrested for refusing her seat to a white man, which was a big impact in African-American’s lives.

Powerful quotes…  Homer Plessy was a, “Creole of Color, aterm used to refer to black persons in New Orleans…” (Richard Wormser P1) that had ancestors from Europe.  These laws, “dominated the american south for three quarters of a century beginning in the 1890’s.” (PB America P1)
