African American History: From Emancipation through Jim Crow explores African American history after the Civil War to the Civil Rights Movement. Designed by Associate Professor Hasan Kwame Jeffries, of The Ohio State University, this 12-part course explores the period through the lives and struggles of the African American people who lived through it. It tracks the transformation of white supremacy from involuntary bondage to sharecropping, segregation, lynching, and discrimination. It examines the fights African Americans waged to secure key freedom rights from city streets and courtrooms. And it paints a picture of the national landscape before the ever-important Civil Rights Movement.
