didn't switch until the 60's? Why align with a party who was still in bed with the KKK and leave the party of Emancipation?
I know the answer but I wonder if anyone on CE does hmmm.... --- ... Copied to Clipboard!

Back in the civil war era, the republicans were the abolitionists, while the democrats were like "slavery 5ever! YOLO!". idk when they switched and when black people mostly flocked to democratic party >_>

The FDR coalition was never really one of social causes.
A lot of immigrants and minorities who were affected by the Depression were won over by the New Deal. FDR also payed lip service to civil rights causes though they were not something he pursued in office. Even then (unless my memory is off) black Americans still didn't vote quite in the numbers they do now until LBJ --- Not removing this until Mega Man 64 is released on the Wii Virtual Console.

The Democrats of the 30s, at least up north, were a party of the working class and organized labor. Black people were largely working class. Unions were one of the few areas of integration in American Society, though they were not perfect by any means.
Also the Communist Party made a concerted effort to organize black workers in the south during this time. There's a book called Hammer And Hoe that goes into that pretty well. --- kin to all that throbs ... Copied to Clipboard!

Which president sent Federal troops to Arkansas to make the local government allow black kids into school at the time you claim they "switched"? Doom_Art posted...

The Dixiecrats dissolved before the civil rights movement. --- The person who writes for fools is always sure of a large audience. Friend Code: 2723-9696-7248 ... Copied to Clipboard!

When the parties switched it wasn't all at once, the party switch took place over several years until the civil rights act.

To my understanding, the public works projects of the New Deal weren't racially exclusionary and paid fair wages. That was all really. FDR was otherwise pretty racist, and Truman was former klansman, though he shifted the party to a more civil-rights oriented position, leading to the '48 Democrat-Dixiecrat rift.
The Republicans remained the more universally liberal party into the 1960s, after which it split between the Libertarian and Rockefeller types - still pretty liberal though, just not radical. --- ... Copied to Clipboard!
