Jim Crow was the policy of Democrats and Republicans.
From the book"Get Your Knee off Our Necks"
"The 1876 election offered Samuel Tilden from the Democratic party and Rutherford Hayes from the Republican party. Tilden won the popular vote but needed at least 185 electoral votes to become president. He got stuck at 184. Hayes had 166, but nineteen unawarded electoral votes remained after the popular vote. The nineteen votes belonged to South Carolina, Florida, and Louisiana. To get those nineteen votes, Hayes promised to end reconstruction. This promise is known as the 1877 Compromise.
The conditions of the 1877 Compromise are as follows: Hayes would remove federal troops and allow southern states home rule. Rutherford’s agreement to withdraw federal troops took away the protection the newly freed blacks had in the south from physical violence and nullified or ended constitutional protections blacks had due to the Union victory. Allowing the south home rule meant the Republican Party would no longer intervene in local issues in the south. At that point, the Republican Party first turned its back on blacks and ended its commitment to black civil rights in the south.
During the Civil War period, Radical Republicans had great power and were able to get initiatives passed providing blacks with civil rights. The pressure from Radical Republicans was responsible for creating the 14th Amendment and the implementation of the Reconstruction Acts over President Johnson’s veto. These two actions allowed protection to the newly freed blacks.
The influence of the Radical Republicans was gone once reconstruction ended, and the republican party began to turn away from issues affecting blacks. Southern white Republicans resented that the party had become the “black folks party” to use the kindest description, and felt that they needed to gain support from southern whites to become national.10 As blacks gained power and started winning elections, white resistance increased, and as a result, there was a backlash against southern black republicans called the lily-white movement.
The lily-white movement was an all-white faction of the Republican Party in the Southern United States in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. It battled and usually defeated the biracial element called the Black-and-tan faction.
During Reconstruction, following the U.S. Civil War, black leaders in Texas and around the country gained increasing influence in the Republican Party by organizing blacks as an important voting bloc. Conservative whites attempted to eliminate this influence and recover white voters who had defected to the Democratic Party. The effort was largely successful in eliminating African-American influence in the Republican Party leading to black voters predominantly migrating to the Democratic Party for much of the 20th century.
The term lily-white movement was coined by Texas Republican leader Norris Wright Cuney, who used the term in an 1888 Republican convention to describe efforts by white conservatives to oust blacks from positions of Texas party leadership and incite riots to divide the party. The term came to be used nationally to describe this ongoing movement as it further developed in the early 20th century, including through the administration of Herbert Hoover. Localized movements began immediately after the war but by the beginning of the 20th century the effort had become national. This movement is largely credited with driving blacks out of the Republican party during the early 20th century, setting the stage for their eventual support of the Democrats.”

Plessy v. Ferguson - Wikipedia
en.wikipedia.org
William McKinley(Repulican) was president when Plessy was passed.
William McKinley, president from 1897-1901, delivered an inaugural address extolling equal rights and declared, “Lynchings must not be tolerated.” However, he remained silent when white supremacists in Wilmington, North Carolina, staged an 1898 coup that ousted all Black elected officials and killed at least 60 Blacks. His lack of response to lynchings prompted a Black-owned newspaper to observe, “The Negroes of this country turn with impatience, disappointment and disgust from Mr. McKinley’s fence-straddling and shilly-shallying discussion of lynch law.”
• Theodore Roosevelt, president from 1901-1909, believed in white superiority while simultaneously advocating educational opportunity regardless of race. In a letter to a friend, he wrote, “Now as to the Negroes! I entirely agree with you that as a race and in the mass they are altogether inferior to the whites.”
A Brief History of U.S. Presidential Racism
The fury over racial injustice that erupted in the wake of George Floyd’s killing has forced Americans to confront their history. That’s unfamiliar territory for most Americans, whose historical knowledge amounts to a vague blend of fact and myth that was only half-learned in high school and is...nationalinterest.org
Here are 2 Republican presidents during Jim Crow. Now try telling everybody how Jim Crow was only democrats.

Your anecdotal opinion of what the entire nation was like in the 1950’s is the furthest thing from “truth”
So do you believe working in a mill is acceptable?

If you can provide for your family by sacrificing in any job, and your family loves you for that, absolutely.

And by the way.. who in the hell do you think you are here?
Are you somehow above working in a mill? If the options were what they were in previous generations, you might have worked at one.
Steel mill workers should have been paid triple the wages they made. At a minimum. They were taken advantage of. Were owed a whole lot more.
Well then it's not a bad thing less young people are having families.

The "initforme" person, who's name says it all, is anyone's worst imagination of the Union Rep who demands exorbitant wages, no show jobs and ridiculous benefits for no discernable reason, just to stick it to anyone that has invested money to provide those jobs.
Everything that is wrong in the USA, personified.

You've been duped into believing in the boogeyman.
There's no demonstrable relationship between P2025 and Trump or his campaign.
Wait. Proj 25 wants to get rid of porn? I bet trump won't go for that, since grabbing p*ssy is his hobby.

Facts have no effect on them.
It is a directional wish list from the Conservative Heritage Foundation, nothing more.

It's the 2024 equivalent to "Enron!!" -- the useful idiots were given a talking point to disseminate.
