RACISM Zhi Min 17 Entry 1
In 193os, more than 2 million of African America were slaves in America.There was no nation in greater horror of racism then in America. Regulations were set affecting free negros. (free negro was a term used to describe African Americans who were not slave to the abolition of slavery) Free negro was required to give the mayor a 'satisfatory evidence of freedom'. This requires $50 for himself, $50 for each of his family members and to post a bond of a $1000 to secure 5 white guarantors of good behavior.
In order to remain free, gangs bent on kidnapping and most of the time seizing. In america, if a student had murdered someone he was able to attracts less attention and criticism but if your a negro, slave or free negro you could not testify against the whites.
Negros are often called 'nigger' which is one of the most offensive word in english. They suffered humilations and insults. I personally thinks that every race should had equal treatments.
