Assignment:
There are three reasons listed as to the why the disenfranchisment of African Americans occurred. Summarize each reason in two sentences per reason.
Reason 1 - Diverse racial composition -The reason for diverse racial composition is that by generating increased competition for the menial labor and manufacturing jobs that would have gone to them easily in a city like Chicago or Detroit and after WWII they became isolated rather than racial intergration.
Reason 2 - Dynamic economic growth -Though a new wave of both very high-skill and very low-skill manufacturing industries, along with the expansion of retail and service industries, created thousands of new jobs in Los Angeles and Southern California the blacks found that they were not treated equally.
Reason 3 - Dispersive spatial arrangement -Though the whites finally became to recognize the consequences of housing people in segregated areas they agressively respnded of the flood of blacks by defending racial desegragation and whatever blacks gained from the benifits of WWII quickly disappeared in the postwar years.
