In the South, black people who did not follow the customs and laws of Jim Crow faced violent consequences. The Ku Klux Klan (KKK), a white supremacist group that still exists today, gained strength in the early 1900s. Angry white mobs would lynch someone who did not adhere to the accepted racial order. In 1955, Emmett Till was lynched in Mississippi. He had been accused of offending a white woman in a grocery store. He was only 14 years old. His mother made the powerful choice to give her only son an open casket at his funeral to show the world what the racist murderers had done.
Which of these statements can you infer Emmett Till’s mother would have most likely agreed with? *

A. The KKK was a white supremacist group that disbanded in the 1960s.
B. The world needs to confront the violence of racism in order to fight it.
C. Segregation was losing its hold on the South by the 1950s.
D. Lynchings are rare, and people should not be afraid.

Answer:

In 1955, two white men brutally murdered African American teenager Emmett Till for reportedly flirting with a white woman in the town of Money, Mississippi.

Till's mother Mamie held an open-casket funeral so that the world could see the violence that murderous racists had inflicted on her son's body. The funeral drew over 100,000 mourners.

Till's murderers stood trial one month later, in a case that received a great deal of media attention across the United States and the world. Both men were acquitted.

Till's death, and the acquittal of his murderers, laid bare the savagery of racism in the United States and served as an inspiration to a generation of civil rights activists.

In 1954, Thurgood Marshall, a lawyer with the NAACP, argued that separation was inherently—meaning by nature—not equal. The Supreme Court sided with Marshall. Thurgood Marshall would later become the first black justice on the Supreme Court. The ruling in Brown v. Board of Education did not bring Jim Crow to an end. Doing so came as a result of the Civil Rights Movement. Dedicated activists and groups led initiatives focusing on different arenas of segregation. Sit-ins worked to desegregate lunch counters. Freedom Riders worked to desegregate interstate buses and terminals. Marches in Selma, Alabama, worked to ensure voting rights first promised by the 15th Amendment 85 years earlier. Slowly, and as a result of great effort and bravery, the laws and customs of Jim Crow disappeared, and new federal protections for all people were put into place.

After the Civil War, the era known as Reconstruction began. During this era, the federal government tried to grant rights to former slaves and rebuild the South. There was progress, including the passage of the 13th, 14th and 15th Amendments, granting freedom, citizenship and voting rights to former slaves.


In the 1877 presidential election, both the Republican and Democratic candidates claimed to have won. Rutherford B. Hayes, the Republican candidate, became president in exchange for withdrawing federal troops from the South. The lack of military presence meant there was no longer a way to enforce the new amendments or punish those who treated African Americans unfairly. Reconstruction came to an abrupt end. Not only that, much of the progress made in the 12 years of Reconstruction was reversed as Jim Crow laws took hold. When we look at the end of Reconstruction and the rise of Jim Crow, it is important to remember that history did not have to be this way. Reconstruction efforts could have continued if the country had committed to it.

What explanation do you have for which of these events occurred during the Reconstruction era?

A. The Civil War began.

B. Rutherford B. Hayes became president.

C. Progress toward racial equality in the South was reversed.

D. Three amendments were passed to grant rights to former slaves.
