Jim Crow, Lynching and White Supremacy – w/ Stephen A. Berrey, Hannah Ayers, Lance Warren and Ahmariah Jackson

<p>Jim Crow was more than signs and separation. It was a system of terror and violence created to control the labor and regulate the behavior of Black people. In this episode, historian Stephen Berrey unpacks the mechanics of racial oppression, the actions white people took—in and beyond the South—to maintain white supremacy, and the everyday ways Black people fought back. And the directors of the film <em>An Outrage</em> join ELA teacher Ahmariah Jackson to discuss teaching the racial terror of lynching.</p> <p>For more movement music inspired by this episode, visit this <a href= "https://open.spotify.com/playlist/3Q3bx7ra1NsuuTA16zo6J8?si=y2ooJdJjSpyIzPuWW6SMZQ" target="_blank" rel="noopener">new Spotify playlist</a>. </p> <p>Here's the Gordon Parks' 1956 <a href= "https://lens.blogs.nytimes.com/2015/01/12/gordon-parks-a-jim-crow-mystery/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Atlanta airline terminal photograph</a> that Dr. Berrey describes. </p> <p>And check out the <a href= "https://www.tolerance.org/podcasts/teaching-hard-history/civil-rights-movement/jim-crow-lynching-and-white-supremacy" target="_blank" rel="noopener">enhanced full transcript</a> of this episode.
