Today I'll take a brief look at a Supreme Court Ruling from 1883 that in essense repealed the 14th Amendment and opened the door for Southern states to create an entire range of separate but equal laws, that not only prevented African-Americans from attending proper schools, eating in restaurants, etc... but often led to voting restrictions and horrific acts of criminality by white supremacist groups like the KKK. The SCOTUS decision sometimes called The Civil Rights Cases of 1883, in large part, opened the door to Jim Crow laws.
In today's chapter from Hunting Charm, we learn why Cynthia Johnson isn't with her husband and children a few weeks later. Bucky Baylor reveals a terrible side to his clownish demeanor when he unleashes his racist wrath upon Cynthia and her infant child.
