W. E. B. DuBois wrote extensively and examined concepts of segregation, both formal and informal, in America in the period following the Civil War and for decades thereafter. Consider in your analysis of this issue what caused both types of segregation, formal and informal (law v. society) to exist and remain in force despite Constitutional prohibitions on discrimination. Your analysis should include reference to and a description of the concept of “the color line” and the actions of government to reinforce the color line.
Format: APA format (at least 5 pages: cover, abstract, your text with in-text citations, sources).
Substantive focus: nature of the color line and the move towards integration, role of government in maintaining institutional racism
