		<description> &lt;a href=&quot;http://jefferson.village.virginia.edu/vcdh/afam/politics/vote.html&quot; title=&quot;1901 Flyer&quot;&gt;No White Man To Lose His Vote In Virginia.&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;b&gt;Some background resources for l&apos;affaire de Lott: &lt;/b&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.nv.cc.va.us/home/nvsageh/Hist122/Part1/LectureOLRecon.html&quot; title=&quot;From Professor Henry J. Page&apos;s History 122&quot;&gt;Lecture Summary: Reconstruction&lt;/a&gt;&lt;b&gt;;&lt;/b&gt; &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.vcdh.virginia.edu/afam/raceandplace/&quot; title=&quot;Race and Place is an archive about the racial segregation laws, or the &apos;Jim Crow&apos; laws from the late 1880s until the mid-twentieth century. The focus of the collection is the town of Charlottesville in Virginia. The Jim Crow laws segregated African-Americans from white Americans in public places such as schools, and school buses. The archive contains photos, letters, two regional censuses and a flash map of the town of Charlottesville. The Jim Crow laws were not overturned until the important Brown versus Board of Education court ruling in 1954 (but not totally eliminated until the Civil Rights Act of the 1964). &quot;&gt;Race and Place: An African-American Community In The Jim Crow South&lt;/a&gt;&lt;b&gt;;&lt;/b&gt; &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.pbs.org/wnet/jimcrow/&quot; title=&quot;Amply documented website for the PBS series.&quot;&gt;The Rise And Fall of Jim Crow&lt;/a&gt;&lt;b&gt;; &lt;/b&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.nps.gov/malu/documents/jim_crow_laws.htm&quot; title=&quot;Here is a sampling of laws from various states. &quot;&gt;Jim Crow Laws&lt;/a&gt;&lt;b&gt;;&lt;/b&gt;  &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.americanradioworks.org/features/remembering/&quot; title=&quot;For much of the 20th Century, African Americans in the South were barred from the voting booth, sent to the back of the bus, and walled off from many of the rights they deserved as American citizens. Until well into the 1960s, segregation was legal. The system was called Jim Crow. In this documentary, Americans--black and white--remember life in the Jim Crow times. Featuring excerpts from American Radio Works series.&quot;&gt;Remembering Jim Crow&lt;/a&gt;&lt;b&gt;;&lt;/b&gt; &lt;a href=&quot;http://cds.aas.duke.edu/btv/btvindex.html&quot; title=&quot;Documenting African-American Life In The Jim Crow South&quot;&gt;Behind The Veil&lt;/a&gt;&lt;b&gt;;&lt;/b&gt; &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.ferris.edu/news/jimcrow/menu.htm&quot; title=&quot;Jim Crow Museum at Ferris State University: &apos;&apos;A Little Room With A Big Purpose&apos;&apos;&quot;&gt;The Jim Crow Museum of Racist Memorabilia&lt;/a&gt;&lt;b&gt;; &lt;/b&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://jefferson.village.virginia.edu/vcdh/afam/politics/home.html&quot; title=&quot;To understand disfranchisement and anti-disfranchisement on a local level, visit CHARLOTTESVILLE, VA between the years 1900 to 1925. Total population in 1910 included 6,765 people, 2,524 African Americans and 4,236 whites. Among the 1,742 males of voting age, 550 were African-American. While Charlottesville may have had a smaller population than some of Virginia&apos;s larger cities, political activity and controversy was still alive and well. Sweeping generalizations about Southern political thought and voting become inaccurate and inadequate when exploring local movement. &quot;&gt;The Politics of Disfranchisement: White Supremacy and African-American Resistance in Charlottesville, Virginia, 1900-1925&lt;/a&gt;&lt;b&gt;;&lt;/b&gt; &lt;a href=&quot;http://lcweb.loc.gov/rr/print/085_disc.html&quot; title=&quot;Documentation by Farm Security Administration-Office of War Information Photographers&quot;&gt;Photographs of Sign Enforcing Racial Discrimination&lt;/a&gt; &lt;b&gt;and &lt;/b&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.lib.berkeley.edu/~ljones/Jimcrow/&quot; title=&quot;A teaching resource in American History created by Lynn Jones, a librarian at the Teaching Library, UC Berkeley, for the California Heritage Project, and the BANDL Librarians&apos; Network. &quot;&gt;Jump Jim Crow, or did Emancipation Make A Difference?&lt;/a&gt; &lt;/a&gt;  </description>

		<description>&lt;a href="http://www.pbcommercial.com/archives/index.inn?loc=detail&amp;amp;doc=/2002/October/22-2390-NEWS1.TXT"&gt;Making Rehnquist Proud&lt;/a&gt; Just like Rehnquist and his earlier political service, Jim Crow is still hard at work.
&quot;Tim Hutchinson and the Republican Party have claimed that they want to reach out to African-American voters, but when election time comes they have nothing to offer but intimidation and harassment,&quot; Cook said. &quot;We ask Tim Hutchinson and his party to stop disenfranchising African-American voters and obstructing the democratic process.&quot;  </description>

		<description>&lt;a href="http://www.journale.com/withoutsanctuary/index.html"&gt;This&lt;/a&gt; is a site for a book, and a traveling exhibit, of photgraphy of public lynchings in the Not-so-long-ago-as-you-might-wish American past.

A friend of mine went to the exhibit in Pittsburgh and said it was hardest thing he&apos;s ever done, it was moving and horryfying of what people are capable of when they become an angry mob.

However BAD you thoguht the world is now, it was worse just several decades ago.  </description>
