In reality, for more than six decades, African Americans had their civil rights and basic human rights systematically denied in much of the nation. \u003ci\u003eJim Crow: A Historical Encyclopedia of the American Mosaic\u003c\/i\u003e sheds new light on how the systematic denigration of African Americans after slavery-known collectively as \"Jim Crow\"-was established, maintained, and eventually dismantled.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWritten in a manner appropriate for high school and junior high students as well as undergraduate readers, this book examines the period of Jim Crow after slavery that is often overlooked in American history curricula.
