It was a brutal time for the Little Rock Nine. Ernest Green and 8 other colored teenagers were transferring to an all-white school, Little Rock High School, because they wanted a better education, but the high schoolers there were very racist. For example, when Ernest and his brother went to take a shower after gym class, a couple of white boys hiding in the showers placed broken glass all over the floor. So when Ernest stepped in, the broken glass pieces cut his feet very badly and he was bleeding viciously. When the boys went up to the gym teacher to tell him, he saw the white boys in the shower room hiding and he let it go.(Laneuville) This was very racist because ever since the nine black teens got there, they have been nothing but mean to them just because they are racist jerks who have no respect for these kids just ∞because of the color of their

Considering it is the 1930s.

Lynchings were a real threat to African Americans in the eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries. They created a lot of fear in the African American community especially in this time period. Between 1882 and 1969, 4,743 people lynchings occurred. In 1882, African Americans accounted for forty-six percent of lynchings. Yet from 1900 to 1910, African Americans represented eighty-nine percent of lynchings.

In the 19th and 20th centuries Europe was thriving and wealthy while most of their colonies in Africa were suffering under their rule. The Europeans all wanted a piece of Africa’s land with its plentiful resources and free labor. Around this time, Europe was going through the industrial revolution and because business was booming the European countries need more resources than they already had. The Africans had the land the Europeans wanted to use to continue having booming businesses, they also had African slaves and workers that they can use so they don’t have to pay for labor. In the 19th century leader of the Europeans countries want to discuss how they will divide Africa without the leaders of Africa knowing. The Europeans then started to invade Africa and take control over the citizens. As the Europeans got more powerful, the Africans become more miserable. Unable to match the guns Europe had, African countries began getting claimed, one by one with the exception of two. The Europeans ruled in a cruel way that left many Africans dead or suffering. Many countries tried and successfully broke away from Europeans after many years under colonization. The Europeans had a negative impact on the lives of many Africans in the 19th and 20th centuries, especially with racism and assimilation. People were taught to be a human they had to be like a European which led to many racist views on African people and culture and is why some nations like France used assimilation to make

During the 1800’s the United States was consumed by racial tension and discrimination. The African American people wanted to be equal to the white people, and the white people felt the African Americans shouldn 't be. This caused many uprisings and the formation of groups based on belief. One very infamous group was the Klu Klux Klan. They were a group based on hate and violence towards African American people. The KKK eventually extended into every state, victimizing any African American they could.

The life of African Americans in the 19th and 20th centuries has been a truly storied past. One of the most astonishing aspects of African American life, in this period, is the degree to which it was heterogeneous. The experiences of African Americans differed widely based on geographic location, class, gender, religion, and age. Despite a high degree of variability in the experiences of Blacks in America, if one were to consider the sociopolitical fact that Black people as a group in America were a subordinate caste in dominant society, then it becomes possible to make certain overarching connections. One such connection is the presence of secretive subversive ideologies and actions. The existence of these secretive subversive activities is apparent if one examines the labor tendencies, the folklore, and the outward societal projections of black people. By briefly examining the labor practices of Black women in Atlanta during the latter part of the 19th and early part of the 20th centuries, The Uncle Remus tales, and cultural icon Louis Armstrong, one can deduce that secretive subversive actions and beliefs were an integrated aspect of Black existence during this period.

African Americans were finally taking a stand and proving they were not “separate but equal” like the doctrine in Plessy v. Ferguson stated. Many associations rose since the country seemed to be headed for a drastic change. The NAACP came to be about in 1909, this is one of the oldest civil rights organization whose mission is to fight for social and economic equality. By examining a series of photographs in that time, it is seen how the NAACP overexpressed the idea of one society as a whole, achieved justice without any force of violence and faced dangers while fighting for equality.

Segregation in the United States, is defined as legal or social practice of separating people by law based on differences of race, wealth, culture, religion, or sexual orientation. Racial segregation in started as early as the 1800's as slavery. Slaves weren’t allowed to have an education like their owners’ children.
