- Synopsis
- Praised as "viscerally powerful" (Publishers Weekly), Remembering Jim Crow is a remarkable book that captures the searing experience of the Jim Crow years - racial segregation laws enacted between 1876 and 1965 in the United States at the state and local level. The document of hardship is also enriched by memories of individual, family and community triumphs and tragedies. In vivid, compelling accounts, men and women from all walks of life tell how their day-to-day lives were subjected to profound and unrelenting racial oppression.
