EvaluationAn increase in lynching, the Jim Crow Laws and Supreme Court decisions suggest that African-Americans were continually isolated. However, too much emphasis on discrimination in the South and ignores the success of African- Americans in both the West and the North. This includes the creation of the Black Ivy League universities, and the success of the Black Populists. Furthermore, in the West people were often indifferent to colour in comparison to the South. |
