How is racism today different than racism practiced immediately after Reconstruction?
- Racism today is more hidden than the racism practiced after the Reconstruction because before, the Southern States had made a broad system of legal policies of racial discrimination that limited the African-Americans' political power. The Southern States required registration and a literacy test to vote which is obviously unfair to the blacks because most of them cant read or write. The African-Americans and the Whites were segregated in public facilities like schools, theaters, restroom, etc.
