History draft 1

To what extent did the lives of African American's improve by 1945.

Life in the south has never been easy for black people and even to this day in certain parts it still is, what does that tell us? That even today racism still stands? That we're still where we was seventy years ago? No, not at all. The strive for freedom and equality has been a long road and indeed has hit upon many bumps, some set backs even but clearly it can be seen that both the south and even the north have come along way in accepting their ebony brethren.

Working class black men perhaps came into the most contact and even the most racism from their white counterparts, they spent their day to day lives either being oppressed or working along side white people. While in the north it was a different story compared to the south, it was still a world of hardship. In the past, black people where not able to earn money as slaves but with their freedom many found job opportunities as wielders and other jobs, it was so that many black people left the south for the north in the great migration.
