    The Negro Motorist Green Book (at times styled The Negro Motorist Green-Book or titled The Negro Travelers' Green Book) was an annual guidebook for African-American roadtrippers, commonly referred to simply as the Green Book. It was originated and published by New York City mailman Victor Hugo Green from 1936 to 1966, during the era of Jim Crow laws, when open and often legally prescribed discrimination against non-whites was widespread. Although pervasive racial discrimination and poverty limited black car ownership, the emerging African-American middle class bought automobiles as soon as they could, but faced a variety of dangers and inconveniences along the road, from refusal of food and lodging to arbitrary arrest. In response, Green wrote his guide to services and places relatively friendly to African-Americans, eventually expanding its coverage from the New York area to much of North America, as well as founding a travel agency.
    Many Black Americans took to driving, in part to avoid segregation on public transportation. As the writer George Schuyler put it in 1930, "all Negroes who can do so purchase an automobile as soon as possible in order to be free of discomfort, discrimination, segregation and insult."[1] Black Americans employed as athletes, entertainers, and salesmen also traveled frequently for work purposes.
    African-American travelers faced hardships such as white-owned businesses refusing to serve them or repair their vehicles, being refused accommodation or food by white-owned hotels, and threats of physical violence and forcible expulsion from whites-only "sundown towns". Green founded and published the Green Book to avoid such problems, compiling resources "to give the Negro traveler information that will keep him from running into difficulties, embarrassments and to make his trip more enjoyable."[2]
    From a New York-focused first edition published in 1936, Green expanded the work to cover much of North America, including most of the United States and parts of Canada, Mexico, the Caribbean, and Bermuda. The Green Book became "the bible of black travel during Jim Crow",[3] enabling black travelers to find lodgings, businesses, and gas stations that would serve them along the road. It was little known outside the African-American community. Shortly after passage of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, which outlawed the types of racial discrimination that had made the Green Book necessary, publication ceased and it fell into obscurity. There has been a revived interest in it in the early 21st century in connection with studies of black travel during the Jim Crow era.

    It is amazing what your democrat party did to the negro. You know that the democrat party is the political party of Jim Crow laws right?

    Now here is where Deshtard tries to whitewash history and claim that it wasn't really the democrat party after all.

    Surprisingly, this forum tends to be chock full of racism, misogyny, juvenile insults, and just plain old insipid, tedious nincompoopery. Rare to find these good little nuggets of intel. A simple little story that provides a lot of insight.

    I did not know anything about this. You learn something new everyday!
    You didn't know about this? I thought it was common knowledge. But, then I know how the democrat party has tried to white wash their history as it pertains to the KKK, Jim Crow laws and opposition to Civil Rights.

    By the way, all of those things you just listed describe Deshtard to a tee. Did you know she brags about spitting in the face of an innocent black man for no reason? Isn't that racist?

    Really? They handed it off? How exactly did that happen? Was there a formal meeting?

    Stop the lie. It never happened.

    Now here is where Deshtard pulls some Wikipedia about Nixon's so called "Southern Strategy" even though I have debunked it hundreds of times. There was no "switching of the parties" over race. It never happened.

    FACT: It was the democrat party that opposed civil rights
    FACT: It was the republican party that championed and passed civil rights legislation overcoming democrat obstruction

    So Deshtard and her fellow democrat party members would have you believe that members of the democrat party were so incensed over the passage of Civil Rights legislation that they decided to say FUCK the party that agreed with them and opposed it and decided to join the party that helped pass it.

    Now in what universe does that make any logical sense? It doesn't, but that doesn't stop the lefties from spouting the lie trying to erase their history.

    If you notice, every time you accurately point out that the misery foisted upon blacks by the democrat party through the KKK and Jim Crow, all they can muster is "well the parties switched". That is it. No remorse. No contrition.

    What is even more laughable is that deshtard tries with a straight face to say that "labels don't matter", yet she gets her wrinkled old twat in a knot when someones says "democrat party"

    Sometimes this is just too damned easy

    Why won't you admit that the KKK was the terrorist arm of the democrat party? Why won't you admit that it was democrats who passed Jim Crow laws?

    Why does no democrat admit it?

    you already have a supreme court ruling saying it is legally permissible to discriminate against whites and asians for college in favor of blacks and latinos. What more do you want?

    It's a lie. More Blacks and Latinos did NOT vote for dump.

    Giving a reason as to why they did, legitimizes the lie.
