Are we witnessing a new era of racial segregation and systemic discrimination? This video examines how modern policies—from mass incarceration and voter suppression to economic and housing inequality—mirror the Jim Crow laws of the past.

We trace the history of Jim Crow from its 19th-century origins to its legal end in the 1960s, then uncover today’s realities: racialized policing, felony disenfranchisement, restrictive voting laws, environmental racism, and widening education gaps. Civil-rights attorneys, historians, and activists call this the “New Jim Crow,” a term popularized by Michelle Alexander to describe the ongoing struggle for racial justice.

Join us as we connect the dots between past and present, exposing how structural racism continues to shape America’s democracy. Whether you’re a student, activist, or concerned citizen, this deep dive will give you the facts, data, and historical context you need to understand and challenge racial inequality today.
