The Age of Segregation: Race Relations in the South, 1890-1945
Edited by Robert Haws Essays by Derrick Bell, Mary Frances Berry,
Dan Carter, Al-Tony Gilmore, Robert Higgs, and George Tindall In
the decade of the 1890s, the southern states of the still-healing
union institutionalized a system of laws governing race relations
which has been described alternately as the South's second peculiar
institution and, bluntly, as apartheid. That system of proscribed
race relations and separation consigned black southerners to a
status little removed from slavery. The essays in The Age of
Segregation: Race Relations in the South, 1890-1945, delivered by
major scholars just after America's bicentennial, concentrate on
the economic and social conditions of blacks and whites living
under the sinister orthodoxy of Jim Crow. This book is second in a
three-part investigation which begins with What Was Freedom's
Price? and concludes with Have We Overcome? Race Relations since
Brown, 1954-1979. All three are available again in paperback from
University Press of Mississippi. Robert Haws is Chair of the
Department of Public Policy Leadership at the University of
Mississippi.
