Virginia: Any public hall, theatre, opera house, motion picture show or place of public entertainment which is attended by both white and colored persons shall separate the white race and the colored race.

Some examples of Jim Crow laws are the segregation of public schools, public places, and public transportation, and the segregation of restrooms, restaurants, and drinking fountains for whites and blacks. The U.S. military was also segregated.
Jim Crow Laws Segregate

21. The Dark Side of Reconstruction:
These codes granted African Americans certain rights, such as legalized marriage, ownership of property, and limited access to the courts—but denied them the rights to testify against whites, to serve on juries or in state militias, or to vote, and express legal concern publicly. Some also declared that those who failed to sign yearly labor contracts could be arrested and hired out to white landowners.
Black Codes MOSTLY
took rights away from Blacks.

22. The Dark Side of Reconstruction:
Sharecropping was a way for freedman to work on the land and be paid for it. The landowner provided land, housing (a shack), tools and seed, and perhaps a mule, and a local merchant loaned money for food and supplies. At harvest time the sharecropper received a share of the crop (from one-third to one- half), which paid off his debt to the merchant. By the late 1860s white farmers also became sharecroppers
Sharecroppers were tied to the land…
Could be Black or White..
Often lived like slaves…

23. The Dark Side of Reconstruction:
Southern whites who formed a Republican coalition with black freemen and Northern newcomers (called carpetbaggers) to take control of their state and local governments.
Scalawags (Southerners)
and Carpetbaggers (Northerners)
were often run out of town.

24. The Dark Side of Reconstruction
The first Klan was founded in 1865 by six veterans of the Confederate Army. The name means circle, suggesting a circle or band of brothers.
The KKK (KU KLUX KLAN)
Used fear/violence to
keep Blacks and Republicans
from making gains
