1. I believe you are talking about the "Jim Crow Laws" which was a code that suppressed rights of African Americans. For example, one of the codes was along the lines of: If your father could not vote, then you cannot vote. And so the suppression was passed down for a long time until the emancipation. Unfortunately, I don't have the book anymore, but I hope that clears things up a little.
