      Is the American Way within reach to everyone?

      Slide 3 - Tekstslide

      In 1865, the US government abolished slavery. Since then, substates, cities & organisations  introduced all kinds of their own laws and rules to separate black people from white people. The whites called this 'separate but equal'. This segregation meant, e.g. the US army had separate units for blacks and whites. In a number of states it was also illegal for black people to maary white people. Politicians were able to implement these Jim Crow laws, because there was suffrage for only few black people.
      For a long time, the black population suffered this discrimination without protest. However in the 1950s, the civil right movement arose to demand that all civil rights also applied to black people.

      Rosa Parks is bekend geworden door het Montgomery-busincident. Op 1 december 1955 zat Parks in de bus van de stad Montgomery. Ze weigerde toen haar zitplaats af te staan aan een blanke passagier. In de wet van de staat Alabama, waar Montgomery ligt, stond dat ze dit wel moest doen. Uiteindelijk kwam de politie en kreeg ze een boete van 10 dollar ($10) plus extra kosten van 4 dollar ($4). Parks weigerde deze boete te betalen. Ze werd toen gearresteerd en moest voor de rechtbank komen, omdat ze de "openbare orde" zou hebben verstoord.

      Toen Martin Luther King, een andere burgerrechtenactivist die tegen de rassenscheiding was, hiervan hoorde, organiseerde hij de Montgomer-busboycot. De zwarte bevolking van de stad ging niet meer met de bus naar school/werk/winkels, maar op andere manieren. Zo namen veel mensen de taxi, die heel goedkoop was geworden, of ze gingen met de fiets, lopend of zelfs met een ezel! 156 boycotters werden gearresteerd voor het "hinderen" van een bus. Hierdoor kreeg iedereen in de Verenigde Staten te horen van de boycot. Het busbedrijf van Montgomery ging bijna failliet, daarom schafde ze uiteindelijk de rassenscheiding af. De zaak tegen Rosa Parks was ondertussen bij het Amerikaanse Hooggerechtshof beland, de belangrijkste rechtbank van de Verenigde Staten. Het hooggerechtshof vond dat Rosa Parks gelijk had, en verklaarde de rassenscheiding in Alabama ongrondwettig.

      Slide 15 - Tekstslide

      How many years after the abolition of slavery (USA) did black people get equal civil rights in the eyes of the law?

      Slide 16 - Woordweb

      Emancipation achieved?
            legally the same civil rights
            still racism in mentality of many

      Black people therefore continue to protest and confront.

      In the 1980s and 1990s, civil rights received less and less attention.
