First line

In Mississippi the color was drawn in the attitudes and habits of its people, black and white, well before it was sanctioned by law.

From the rear cover

This is a history of Mississippi's black people, its majority people, and their struggles to achieve autonomy and full citizenship during the critical period of disfranchisement, segregation, and exclusion following 1890.
