Persuasive Essay On Segregation

Ever been treated unfairly because if your skin color, you are not alone. In the late 1875s Congress passed an act issuing segregation on public areas such as schools or restaurants. The act was supposed to separate black and white people in public squares, white people would go into one room and the black people into the other one and both rooms should be equal and do the same thing. However, that was not the case, segregation only brought hate against colored people and poor quality or condition to colored people in public squares. Segregation is wrong since everyone was created equally, and the 2 main reasons why segregation is wrong, is that it brings prejudice against others and the colored people don’t get the same quality conditions

Article 2 it mentions that, “And although the Supreme Court case recognized Louisiana's segregated trains cars as relatively equal in quality, this is not true for most segregated areas. Public schools for black children receive less funding, less maintenance and less teacher training.” Black schools were in the bad condition since they received little funds to improve their schools by adding new programs to their schools and renewing things. At the time mostly everyone was poor or had a decent amount of cash and couldn’t but those who could, didn’t since it was irrelevant to their lives, so it was up to the government to the fund the schools and the government prefered white schools over black school since most government officials were white. Poor funding lead to bad education or loss of education and with this happening, black people couldn’t improve their living conditions. Another detail that is mentioned in Article 2 is, “Things like colored bathrooms were poorly constructed and rarely cleaned.” People in the day didn’t care enough to built the rooms correctly and clean them even if it was their job. Poor quality things lead to bad consequences such as worse medications for the sick,not much to offer ,and poorly working things Poor quality lead to blacks not only losing equal service but also bad enjoyment, not having good works things, and bad service in
