American Views, “Mississippi’s 1865 Black Codes”.
Basically, Andrew Jackson was racist and to respond to the question of if the black codes
favored home, I would say yes. This is because the core focus of Johnson was to ensure that the
black slaves in the southern had full-time citizenship in the US, had the freedom to participate in
political and democratic activities such as voting. To deal with this he had to reluctantly free his
own slaves so as to have a predecessor right to the emancipation proclamation of Lincoln. The
course of his operation was on the fact that regard for slaves, rather African American were
inferior humans to the whites.
I strongly disagree with the vie...
