There is a reason why whites here don't want to talk about the years after slavery and it is called- THE GREAT NADIR.

“Somewhere” in the Nadir of
African American History, 1890-1920

Although textbooks tend to portray the history of African Americans as if not much happened between 1870 and 1954, the period was actually a long war for civil rights. White southerners continually reinvented new ways to impose white supremacy on their black neighbors. Black southerners fought back against disfranchisement and unequal treatment, the imposition of segregation, and the violent white people who perpetrated racial massacres and lynching. Because the rapidly industrializing South set up a system of racialized capitalism that left black people in segregated jobs at the bottom of the ladder, they sought the self-sufficiency of land ownership and started small businesses. Despite the onslaught of white supremacy, African Americans held hope that they would win the war for civil rights.

The period from 1890-1920, is often called the “nadir” of African American history, yet African Americans kept hope alive and forged new political weapons during this time. It may be helpful to think of southerners in 1890 as the baby boomers of the nineteenth century. Two decades after the Civil War, the southerners who came into power in that decade had been young during Reconstruction and educated after Emancipation. Members of this generation had not fought in the Civil War; nor had they been enslaved. When they came of political age, the white people were determined to find new solutions to “the Negro Problem,” and their black cohort was just as determined to win its fair share of opportunities and resources.

 
Blacks are still in that fight for civil rights in this country today my brother.
True indeed. I present this for these racists to see just how much and for how long whites have benefitted from a continuing system of white racial preference..

Try me.
 
110,100 white men who did not own slaves died miserable deaths to free the slaves in this country. You were freed by white men. I have never heard you thank those men and their families for sacrificing all to free your families. You seem to have overlooked those whities. Reparations have been paid in full.
Maybe your hatred should be directed to the black nations for rounding you up and selling you to the highest bidder...

You live in a white country. Majority rules, minority rights.
Since you are retired and oh so successful, by a plane ticket to the Congo and then tell us how much better it is to live in a black run world. Then move there and there will be no more need for you to bemoan your lot in whitelandia day after day after day after day...

No they didn't and blacks not only died in that war, blacks died in the preceeding 250 years before that war fighting to end slavery. Reparations have not been paid and this is not a white country. I am an American and have the right to protest. You don't like that take your ass back to Ireland and dig potatoEs like your ancestors did before thEY left that shithole for this continent. Now just be quiet.
