a de facto alliance between britain and the enslaved population of north america. britain wanteday to reclaim its territory in the north america it's fair to say the africans did not want to be enslaved. they both had a common antagonist in washington that led to this de facto alliance. if you want understand how jim crow, the system of apartheid that followed slavery came to be weakened during the lifetimes of many of us, like the brown versus board of education decision, 1954, where the supreme court says jim crow is unconstitutional. even those of supreme court in 1990 -- in the 1890's said it was fairly constitutional. the situation had changed. the u.s. was under competitive pressure from the socialist camp. statesld the united credibly charge moscow with human rights violations when people of color were treated so horribly? this created a dynamic that led to the erosion of jim crow. if you want to understand how we might be able to survive the adverse circumstances and consequences we now face, particularly in light of his brother's fortunate election this pa
