RACIAL BOUNDARIES IN THE NINETEENTH CENTURY

Europeans invaded South America in the late 15th century. In the nineteenth century slave trade was at its pea in the American land.  The colony had united its conflicting interests and diverse sentiments through the use of compromises and concession to attain its common goal for the safety and welfare against the enemies. Unfortunately, the same very protection of the citizens right, in a way turned into a red hot sword to the gender differences of the same country.

In my essay the main thesis is that the judicial racism of the minorities in the United States constitution led to their elimination in the boundaries by law. This was due to lack of equipments in the blacks and the low level of literacy. The blacks curtailed for the cultural force literacy deflecting them from material resources and even social justice. This enhanced the slave trade where there was a separation of ideas leading to separated arguments. The racially prejudiced white focused more on the social boundaries of schooling (Fredrick).

The anti slavery whites aimed at turning the free blacks to concede the racial identity. This eventually led to their strategy failing and never worked. The results were segregated schooling and a tenacity of racial boundaries in the American nation. The movement objective was to fight the ages of oppression and ill hearted selfishness against the colored race. In the name of respecting the forefathers and their ways some would argue the enslavement of the colored race as a begotten right. Not considering that the generation change and development as the projection to future of the country. But many were also against this. (Fredrick G.p12)

The European culture and economy of the Americans dominated more than the blacks. This resulted to a situation whereby the Afro Africans, the Mexican- Americans, native Africans and all the other groups to be incorporated into one group. Really if slave trade was a humane task, do you think there was the need to use was there the need to use equivocal and collusive phraseology Was it not a means to cover up the misfits and help meet the disagreeable necessity.

The law denounced the white men as the self owning individuals not even the women unless through marriage and the covertures law.  The husbands were presumed as the providers by law and had the rights to their wives, labor and persons. Denying slavery as justice and denouncing the union against slavery as injustice is one of the hypocritical manner of rule that was enforced. Failure to compromising with the principles of justice would have landed one to crime accumulated fears and a lot of oppression. Its the futile way where ones effort were reduced and short changed and paid with disabilities.  Going for the obvious reason that the citizens adopted the constitution in the first place but they could foresee the consequences that would result from it. I would then argue then that on this ground supporting that same reason was a compromise that would have rendered it practical for the abolition of the slave trading.

The North American blacks used the same language as the whites. They also believed in the same religion and had the same culture and economy too.  They used to compete in live the same way. They remained united unlike the other whites in the south. As a result the blacks structured themselves economically and they were able to handle the slave trade in a free way and thus reducing the economy gap between them and the whites.  (Fredrick G.p20)

Arguing that the slave trade and the words slaves and slavery were not included in the constitution is arbitral a brainwash since use of colloquial words and other simulative phrases is concurrent is a mutual  inclusive agenda. The framing might not be the issue but the implied meaning in the clauses and the judicial interpretation signifies the real phenomena. If this is not the case I tend to differ that the free human trading and degradation could has taken place I the eyes of the ruling power. Again the clauses needed to be abolished which was not the case.

All this expenditure of effort stood at a daring remove, meanwhile, from the ordeals of affiliation and fragments of resistance within the enslaved black communities. With an aim of turning the freed blacks into an independent working class rather than a dependent class the anti slavery whites invested in literacy instruction.  This meant to reduce literacy as a symbolic boundary for the black and the white racial identity. But the racially prejudiced whites were against the racial equality and the class equivalence. For the whites in the northern states, they totally objected this and insulated the white schools preserving the boundaries. (Fredrick G. p16).

The pro slavery whites in the southern states later embraced literacy as a cultural boundary and a symbol of freedom. The pro slavery whites increasingly removed these skilled labours to grant the enslaved blacks rationality but many of the whites were against this.

Doll wants me to put two of her grand children to school to learn how to read and write but I told her I should put them to some trade as soon as they were set for it. (A white overseer). The antislavery whites were unable to comprehend to the white racial privilege.

After the delegation of government powers  came to be delegated to the union, the south that is, South Carolina and Georgia refused their subscription to the parchment, till it should be saturated with the infection of slavery, which no fumigation could purify, no quarantine could extinguish.  The freedom of the north gave way, and the deadly venom of slavery was infused into the constitution of freedom where its first consequence has been to invert the first principle of democracy, that the will of the majority of the numbers shall rule the land but by means of the double representation, the minority command the whole and a knot of slaveholders give the law and prescribe the policy of the country.

The church was actively fighting for the anti slavery. The Methodist Episcopal Church Of America were looking forward for the gradual abolishing of slavery where nearly sixty thousand slaves in Maryland and as many in Virginia and other several southern states.

The Presbyterian Church and the Methodist were also working on the same ground. The Presbyterian Church of Virginia had declared opposed to the slavery and they were working gradually in the state. The anti slavery sentiment was wide spread and effective and this led to the rising of a powerful anti slavery party. This party existed among the Baptists of Kentucky known as the Emancipators. (Fredrick G. p26)

In the year 1789 the Philadelphia Baptist also joined in saying Agreeably to a recommendation in the letter from the church at Baltimore, this association declare their high approbation of the several societies formed in the United states and the Europe , for the gradual abolition of the slavery of the Africans, and for guarding against their being detained or sent off as slaves, after having obtained their liberty and do hereby recommend to the churches as represent,  to form similar societies, to become member thereof, and exert themselves to obtain this important object.  The constitution is made from the religion and if there exists conflict between the religion and the manner of ruling, then one should immediately know there are parallel interests between one of the groups.

Later in the century market for cotton was created and the slaves value gain support. A self confident social system was built in the southern states and the white superiority deepened as the blacks turned more inferior. In Mexico and Guatemala the Indians were adopted by the Ladinos and mestizos. The Indians then turned down and erected barriers to join them. (Fredrick G. p31)

Does this mean they were not the citizen of the country Its surely a discrimination agenda to keep them in the dark side of the economy and tender them away from the ruling and the decision making process in the country. Some blacks by then had already established themselves in the industry in the U.S past the white. The manner of differentiation in the U.S is by the socio- cultural status just as in the northern Brazil. After the civil war, the whites in the south were against the blacks terming them as the cause to the defeat.  How can someone under you allow for a defeat whereas all the commands came from you This is all on matters of scapegoat to the inferiors.

Gender differences were diverse where women were inferior. The immigrants and the migrants were rejected and they experience oppression and resistance both in school and in public.

The history and the way of living between the whites and other races are vital in history. Cultural ethno genesis with the slavery illuminates the different races relationship. Violence and brutality and riots usually were evident some areas. Culture, identity and race played a great role. Think of the Florida borderlands that undermined Africans into slavery and took the whites as the superiors through colonialism. Surely, talking of independence and equality in the land is a mere oppression and the fore fathers were not to blame since they were demeaned by the existing rules to put down their efforts and the others to safeguard their ill motives. To date, the war is far from over where the blacks still claim their indigenous ancestry and heritage.
