“There are those who say to you - we are rushing this issue of civil rights. I say we are 172 years late” —Hubert H. Humphrey

TimeLine

Plessy v. Ferguson• I think this impacted civil rights because

they had to have something to compare to the Brown v. Topeka B.O.E. and it helped segregation in public places.

Jim Crow Laws and photos

• Hospitals could not force white nurses to help colored patients.

• Buses were forced to have separate places for blacks.

• In restaurants colored and white people couldn’t be served in the same room.

My interview

• I interviewed one of my moms’ patients that she has for home health. One of his experiences of discrimination was in school here in Hutchinson. A teacher told him not to drink chocolate milk because thats what “makes him black”.

Civil Disobediencewas it an effective way?

• I think it was an effective way of fighting Civil Rights. It was non-violent which helped because if you did use violence then you could get arrested and that wouldn’t help any thing. And in my opinion it takes more character to do the right thing then do the wrong thing by doing violence.

my reflection

The thing that suprised me about civil rights was that it wasn’t just the klu klux klan that did violent things it was other people too. If I was a teenager in this time period I think that I would support people in the different marches against segregation. I think I would still support in marches or fundraisers or something like that.
