“No good colored boy.” “Go back to the pigsty where you belong” were common words coming out of the mouths of small-hearted people all over the United States. Just imagine having to live in a time when every city, town, and state was surrounded by prospects of black segregation. Try to understand what life would be like for a black maid, a black slave, or a black child trying to ignore what others say at the time. At the time, it was like that. You wouldn't think twice about it, it would be wrong if you were talking about a flyer on the wall welcoming white people to the Bingo meeting that was being held at the new church down the street. In big black letters at the bottom it says WHTIES ONLY. It makes me wonder why white people would treat other black people in a way that makes white people such a powerful race. I also wonder how segregation started and how propaganda made segregation a positive thing for white people. Finally, I wonder if we will still have segregation even years and years later. It may not seem like it, but propaganda plays an important role at a time when we as a nation are influencing the act of segregation in our normal lives. During this time, it was common to have propaganda like posters, advertisements, billboards, or any other type of advertising suggesting that white people were for sure the positive and superior race. Properly, like the image on the left, there is an example of what we call advertising cards. These cards were discriminatory customs and laws that discouraged Americans of all racial, ethical, or religious backgrounds (SN History). This advertising card refers to the African American race as dirty people who do not belong to a civilization. The words "There are no flies on us" imply that the people on the fence... middle of paper ... it's not like how it was back then. Works Cited Almasy, Ralph Ellis and Steve. CN. 2014. May 9, 2014.
