The Lost Cause mythology was more than bad history. It provided the intellectual justification for Jim Crow — not just in the former Confederacy, but everywhere systemic racism denied Black citizens equal citizenship and economic rights. Its dismantling began only in the 1960s when historians inspired by the modern Civil Rights Movement revisited the era of the Civil War and Reconstruction, adopting the views of earlier Black scholars like W.E.B. DuBois and John Hope Franklin, who always knew what the war was about and had shined a spotlight on the agency of Black and white actors alike.

On this day in 1896, the Supreme Court ruled in Plessy v. Ferguson that racially segregated public facilities were legal — as long as they were equal. The ruling affirmed and reinforced “Jim Crow” laws and established the “separate but equal” doctrine that would stand for the next 60 years.

We cannot live up to our greatest ideals without confronting the realities of our past.

BLACK HISTORY MONTH QUOTE 6

Wednesday, February 7, 2024

“The newspaper encouraged displaced entrepreneurs to open businesses in South Tulsa and continue smashing color barriers. But it also spoke to a larger argument about how the definition of black success had changed from building up your own community in the era of Jim Crow to ‘getting out’ to chase bigger opportunities in the formerly all-white world.” – Victor Luckerson, Built from the Fire: The Epic Story of Tulsa’s Greenwood District, America’s Black Wall Street

Post Traumatic Slave Syndrome Post Traumatic Slave Syndrome (P.T.S.S.) is a theory that explains the etiology of many of the adaptive survival behaviors in African American communities throughout the United States and the Diaspora. It is a condition that exists as a consequence of multigenerational oppression of Africans and their descendants resulting from centuries of chattel slavery. A form of slavery which was predicated on the belief that African Americans were inherently/genetically inferior to whites. This was then followed by institutionalized racism which continues to perpetuate injury.

Here we go! 🙄🙄🙄 *sigh* U can get mad, find something “refuting” this or call me names, lol! But that will never change the STONE, COLD FACTS! It wasn’t BLACKS, LATINOS, or MUSLIMS who created AMERICAN slavery, Jim Crow, and segregation! They didn’t BOMB Black towns off the map nor did they LYNCH Blacks. Here’s the part where u take your own advice and accept FACTS.

Voters in 28 states will face restrictions this November that weren’t in place in the last presidential election, according to the Brennan Center for Justice. Voter suppression laws or election interference legislation — whether through gerrymandering, voter identification changes, barriers to using mail-in or absentee ballots, voter roll purges, consolidation of polling sites, or allowing partisan boards of election undue influence — disproportionately limit the ability to vote for people of color, the elderly, and those with limited resources. Increasingly violent rhetoric and events throughout the 2024 campaign season also have given voters credible concerns about intimidation at the polls.

TW - BLACK HISTORY MONTH QUOTE 3

Thursday, February 1, 2024

“We now know, thanks to developments in DNA analysis, that one in three African American males carries a Y-DNA signature inherited from a direct white male ancestor. Say, a great great great grandfather. And that the average African American autosomal admixture is about 25% European. These startling results could only reflect the frequency of the rape of black women by white men during slavery. The science is irrefutable and telling, and the creation of the stereotype of the black male as rapist can be seen as repression of the guilt and crime of rape projected onto black males.” – Henry Louis Gates Jr., Stony the Road: Reconstruction, White Supremacy, and the Rise of Jim Crow
