Black Codes-Worse Than Slavery

Harper’s Bazaar published this cartoon in 1874 to show that former slaves were still oppressed. The cartoon shows that the lives of African-Americans were still being controlled by racist groups like the KKK.
Cartoons like these are using art to show the real conditions people faced after the Civil War.
