Trump VP Contender Suggests Jim Crow Era Was Better For Black Families Than Now

“At another point, Donalds said he is starting to see the “reinvigoration of Black family,” which he described as younger people forming nuclear family units and “helping to breathe the revival of a Black middle class in America.” He went on to say that those family values had previously been eroded by Democratic policies that Black voters embraced after becoming loyal to the party due to the Civil Rights Movement.

“You see, during Jim Crow, the Black family was together. During Jim Crow, more Black people were not just conservative — Black people have always been conservative-minded — but more Black people voted conservatively,” he said. “And then H.E.W., Lyndon Johnson — you go down that road, and now we are where we are,” he added, referring to the former U.S. Department of Health, Education and Welfare.

The so-called Great Society programs, spearheaded by former President Lyndon Johnson in the 1960s, included civil rights legislation, the creation of Medicaid for low-income Americans, and the expansion of federal food stamp, welfare, and housing programs.”

Let’s research those 100 years, shall we @RealCandaceO @TPUSA @charliekirk11 ?

December 2, 1865

Slavery abolished in America

Post-Slavery South? 14th Amendment passed because some knew some were going to be cruel to others. 15th Amendment made sure some could vote now (the first 100 years this is going to be problematic to enforce!) Reconstruction was put into place for the same reason as 14th Amendment, wise men knew that evil men tend to do evil things.

1877 The Great Betrayal

Compromise of 1877

Compromise of 1877: The End of Reconstruction

The Compromise of 1876 effectively ended the Reconstruction era. Southern Democrats’ promises to protect civil and political rights of blacks were not kept, and the end of federal interference in southern affairs led to widespread disenfranchisement of blacks voters.

From the late 1870s onward, southern legislatures passed a series of laws requiring the separation of whites from “persons of color” on public transportation, in schools, parks, restaurants, theaters and other locations.

Known as the “Jim Crow laws” (after a popular minstrel act developed in the antebellum years), these segregationist statutes governed life in the South through the middle of the next century, ending only after the hard-won successes of the civil rights movement in the 1960s.

World War I?

FIGHTING FOR RESPECT: African-American Soldiers in WWI

When World War I broke out, there were four all-black regiments: the 9th and 10th Cavalry and the 24th and 25th Infantry. The men in these units were considered heroes in their communities. Within one week of Wilson’s declaration of war, the War Department had to stop accepting black volunteers because the quotas for African Americans were filled.
When it came to the draft, however, there was a reversal in usual discriminatory policy.

Draft boards were comprised entirely of white men. Although there were no specific segregation provisions outlined in the draft legislation, blacks were told to tear off one corner of their registration cards so they could easily be identified and inducted separately. Now instead of turning blacks away, the draft boards were doing all they could to bring them into service, southern draft boards in particular.

One Georgia county exemption board discharged forty-four percent of white registrants on physical grounds and exempted only three percent of black registrants based on the same requirements. It was fairly common for southern postal workers to deliberately withhold the registration cards of eligible black men and have them arrested for being draft dodgers.

African American men who owned their own farms and had families were often drafted before single white employees of large planters. Although comprising just ten percent of the entire United States population, blacks supplied thirteen percent of inductees.

https://armyhistory.org/fighting-for-respect-african-american-soldiers-in-wwi/

So 1 out of ten PEOPLE in the US were black, but 13 out of 100 MEN drafted were black. Why arrest them for draft dodging? Let’s put our way-back hats on for a second and go down to Florida…

1868 Florida Constitution

CONSTITUTION of the STATE OF FLORIDA Adopted February 25, 1868

ARTICLE XIV.

Suffrage and Eligibility.

Section 2. No person under guardianship noa compos mentis, or insane, shall be qualified to vote at any election, nor shall any person convicted of felony be qualified to vote at any election unless restored to civil rights.

And then blacks were routinely arrested on trumped up charge, convicted as felons, and had their voting rights taken away. If you live in a 62% black county and you are the white sheriff, you want to remain the white sheriff.

So World War I draft dodgers are now felons – no voting for them! So first 100 years were better @RealCandaceO ?

Remind me again how the first 100 years were better @RealCandaceO Pop Quiz! When did the United States pass an anti-lynching law?

Lynching in America

The US has failed to pass anti-lynching laws 240 times. This is all of them.

The answer to the pop quiz – when did US pass an anti-lynching law? December 20, 2018

After more than 200 attempts, the Senate has finally passed anti-lynching legislation

@RealCandaceO You were born in 1989. You never attended a segregated school.

You never sit in a black-only waiting room. Never ate in a black-only restaurant. Never lived under Jim Crow laws:
