Read the W.E.B. Du Bois document. Think
about the social and economic aspects of Jim Crow segregated city life in Philadelphia
and how they were impacting both people of color and white people. What did
segregation actually look like and entail? How did this effect African American
communities? When did it start, and when will it end? What issues does Du Bois
describe, and what arguments does he make? Does any of his description sound familiar
to contemporary society?
