The Rise and Fall of Jim Crow WebQuest
Go to: http://www.pbs.org/wnet/jimcrow/index.html

1. Click on A Century of Segregation. As you click through the interactive timeline, choose an event from each of these periods: 1881-1900 and 1901-1920. Click on “Read More” for that event and read the “Jim Crow Stories” page about it. For each of the two events you chose, answer:
  • What does this event reveal about the experiences of African Americans during the Jim Crow era? 
    (Be specific – refer to the historical context and significance of the event.)
    ​
2. Go back to Home. Click on Interactive Maps, then Go to the Maps (make sure Adobe Flash is enabled on your browser).
Click on Jim Crow Laws, select each category and choose 1 state and write what you learned. Do this for each category (for the same state).  Do the same for Colleges and Universities tab, Population and migration tab, & lynching and riots tab.
 
3. Go back to Home. Click on Tools and Activities. Click on Voting Then, Voting Now and complete the activity. When you get to the end, answer:
  • What was the voting experience like for African Americans in the Jim Crow era? Is voting valued today as it once was?  
    (Be specific- describe the obstacles to voting.)
