We Are Not Yet Equal

by Carol Anderson

These were mayors, governors, legislators, business leaders, and police chiefs. In the wood-paneled rooms of city halls, in the chambers of city councils, in the marbled state legislatures, and in sheriffs’ offices, white government officials, working hand in hand with plantation, lumber mill, and mine owners, devised an array of ways to stop black people from exercising their right to freedom of movement.

Why?

Black labor was the foundation of the region’s economy. Black people were also indispensable to the South’s social and political structure.
