I am working on a paper that is due this weekend on Jim Crow Laws and was wondering a few things:

1) What were some of the rights that was taken away from the African Americans
2) rights affecting their lives

I do have information on Ida B Wells, Booker T. Washington, and Du Bois as far as the responses are concerned with this law.

Any information would be great.

Thank you Sue. For some reason, I forgot about these! This was most important in African American history! Silly me!
