What educators are saying
Description
In this Black Codes primary source student activity, students learn about Reconstruction by examining primary source text of the Louisiana Black Codes. Students read and examine samples of text to understand the unjust laws passed throughout the South following the Civil War. After examining all excerpts, students analyze the Black Codes as a whole and their effect on the African-American community.
Two versions of this primary source are included -- one an authentic primary source and one which is slightly modified.
