內容簡介

WHITE SLAVES AND BLACK MASTERS.In this riveting alternative history, the premise is simple: What if African-Americans were the dominant power in America one hundred fifty years ago and whites were the ones enslaved? Blacks are in complete control of this new land called America. It is the end of the Civil War and slavery has been abolished and the whites are now free. But there�� a growing political movement pledged to maintain black superiority and dominance through Jim Crow segregation.Every area of society is affected. There are Jim Crow courts, hospitals, schools and public accommodations. From voting to education, vicious segregation laws are enacted to limit white rights. The blacks begin putting on ��hite Face��shows to further mock and ridicule white Americans. However, the worst is yet to come: The frightening Black Riders Association is formed to make absolutely certain who stays in charge through terror, arson and murderous lynch mobs. Eventually, whites grow weary of Jim Crow segregation and demand their equal rights, forcing black Americans to face the morality of segregation. Resistance sparks the Civil Rights Movement, leaving America on the verge of another Civil War. The U.S. Supreme Court must rule whether segregation based on race is constitutional.In this illuminating pictorial journey with over sixty black-and-white photographs, readers will be thrust into an America turned on its head. But even more shocking is the final discovery.
