The unequal relations between Black and White people in the United
States in the 19th century, particularly after the abolition of slavery, can be
attributed to a combination of socio-political, economic, and cultural factors
that perpetuated white supremacy and systemic racial discrimination.
1. Legacy of Slavery
Even after the abolition of slavery with the 13th Amendment in 1865, the
social hierarchy that was created during the period of slavery persisted.
White Americans, particularly in the South, viewed Black people as
inherently inferior and sought to maintain economic and social dominance
over them. The perception that Black people were suited only for servitude
was deeply ingrained in white society, contributing to the continuation of
unequal power relations.
2. Institutionalized Racism
