December 30, 2021 Carma Henry 0

 Americans have come a long way to secure a distinct place into the mainstream of American life. It is only fair to ask what effect, if any, the New Deal had during President Franklin Delano Roosevelt’s era to secure rights for the Blacks during the hard ti9mes of the 1930s and beyond.
