The Road From Reconstruction to Segregation in The United States
With this podcast we begin our coverage of the Civil Rights Movement here in the United States. There will be multiple podcasts, which Jeananne will introduce some topics later on in this one.
To understand the importance of The Civil Rights Movement and why it was such an uphill battle to get legislation passed to protect voting rights, to desegregate schools and public facilities and allow for equal protection under the law, we have to go back to the era of Reconstruction and look at the journey from slavery to segregation.
We reference content from earlier podcasts, so if you want to take a refresher, go back and listen to our podcasts on:
The Civil War (Parts 1 & 2)
Reconstruction / Presidency of Andrew Johnson
Booker T. Washington
Plessy v. Ferguson & The Emergence of Segregation in the US
Take a listen, there is always more to learn!
