HISTORY (F19)260  AFAM HIST 1877-1941JAMES, W.
The years between the end of Reconstruction and America’s entry into the Second World War, rank among the most turbulent in the nation’s history. For African Americans they were even more so. For them, the era was punctuated by years of intense suffering and despair—the “nadir,” one has historian dubbed it--especially during the first decade and a half after Reconstruction, marked as they were by systematic attempts by the southern ruling class to restore the status quo ante—the terrorism of the Ku Klux Klan nightriders, lynchings, disenfranchisement, barbaric penal codes, the proliferation of Jim Crow laws. Yet there were also the hopes engendered by the new opportunities to escape to the North during the Great Migration, which itself was one of the unintended consequences of America’s participation in the First World War. But this optimism was undermined by racism in the North and the eruption of anti-black racist violence nationwide in 1919, known as the “Red Summer,” and once again, intense suffering during the Great Depression.
 
This course aims to provide an overview of the African American experience—South and North—during the two generations between the withdrawal of federal troops from the South (1877) and the end of the Great Depression, marked by the United States formal engagement in the Second World War.
