Resumo de Recurso
Civil Rights movement 1945-55
President Truman
Desegregation of armed forces 1950
To secure these rights 1947
Highlighted inequality and made suggestions for change
New laws proposed to deal with lynching and force police to protect black citizens and prosecute lynch mobs
However, the de facto was that some police members were in the kkk
Legal obstacles such as impossible registration tests stopped black voters
Truman said to abolish the test and enforce voting rights locally
De facto was that no laws were passed by Truman to monitor voting registration in states
White workers received on average 20 cents more per hour than black workers
Truman passed an executive order which successfully guaranteed fair employment in the civil service
Overall segregation
Restaurant at an airport in Washington DC was desegregated
Conclusion
Contributed a fair amount to improvement of the AAs but not full desegragation
Direct action
CORE
Journey of Reconciliation 1947
Sent eight white and eight black men into the South to test the Supreme Court's ruling of segregation on interstate travel
Achieved a lot of media attention and was the start of much direct action from CORE
Congress of Racial Inequality
Legal action
NAACP
National Association for the Advancement of Coloured People
Founded 1909
Put pressure on politicians, fought court cases and led non-violent campaigns
Morgan v Virginia
Many buses ran from one state to another, so they could run from segregated states into non-segregated ones
Irene Morgan fined $100 for refusing to give up her seat to a white person
Supreme Court said state laws do not apply to buses travelling from one state to another
Brown v Board of Education
1954
Ordered all schools to desegregate with 'all deliberate speed'
Gave southern schools the impression desegregation didn't need to be immediate
Some states took up to 8 years
Things limiting improvements
Ku Klux Klan
White supremacists
Tried to sabotage civil rights movement by bombing black schools and churches (violent methods)
No leader yet
Not a nationwide campaign, more local direct action
