1 janv. 1865 - Black Codes

Description:

Black Codes were restrictive laws passed in the Southern states after the Civil War, during the early stages of Reconstruction, aimed at controlling the labor, movement, and behavior of newly freed African Americans. These laws sought to reimpose racial restrictions and preserve white supremacy, effectively attempting to continue the conditions of slavery under new guises, which led to widespread criticism and eventually federal intervention.
