Life for them was such that they had absolutely no reason to be optimistic, hopeful, confident, expectant, encouraging, visionary or enthusiastic about their future. One must keep in mind that this was just 75 years after the American Civil War and the 'Black Codes', 63 years after Reconstruction ended, and the introduction of 'Jim Crow' laws that enforced racial segregation in the Southern United States. These 'Jim Crow' laws were enacted by white Democratic dominated state legislatures throughout the South. This was a time when white people in the South were 'Democrats'!

You so-called white people will not get away from paying us, African-Americans, the Reparations you owe us, never! It is time for an African-American Revolution.…
