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

If you were a black man, woman, or child in 1877 South, when the last train left your town with the last Federal soldier, your life just became living hell!
We are 31 years in of the 100. Not going well!
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.

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…
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.
Remind me again how the first 100 years were better @RealCandaceO Pop Quiz! When did the United States pass an anti-lynching law?
The answer to the pop quiz – when did US pass an anti-lynching law? December 20, 2018
