PUTTING IT ALL TOGETHER: Here is your opportunity to demonstrate that you understand the some of the broad themes of African American history (1865 to the present) covered in this course:
History Repeats Itself? Or is it that nothing really changed? In the aftermath of slavery, newly emancipated African Americans faced the backlash of white supremacy. While it may be understandable that such a backlash would occur during the first two or three decades after emancipation, the shocking reality is that this backlash persisted for a full century (100 years) after emancipation (1865-1965). Or does this backlash still persist in 2017?
