Here we examine the forces arrayed against African Americans and the many ways they resisted these forces, operating within and outside of them. To set the stage, the readings begin with “Jim Crow” which provides context for the remaining readings. The following readings examine education as a means of bettering African American lives and rejecting Jim Crow ideology.
