The Black Code of Illinois is a historical book written by Zebina Eastman in 1883. The book is a comprehensive study of the laws and regulations that governed African Americans in the state of Illinois during the post-Civil War era. The Black Code was a set of laws that were enacted in various states in the United States after the Civil War, which aimed to restrict the rights of African Americans and maintain white supremacy. Eastman's book provides a detailed analysis of the Black Code in Illinois, which was one of the most progressive states in terms of race relations during that time. The book covers topics such as the prohibition of interracial marriage, segregation in schools, and the denial of voting rights to African Americans. The author also provides a historical context for the Black Code, tracing its origins to the antebellum period and the rise of the abolitionist movement. The book also includes a discussion of the role of the Ku Klux Klan in enforcing the Black Code and maintaining white supremacy in Illinois. Overall, the Black Code of Illinois is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of race relations in the United States. The book provides a detailed analysis of the laws and regulations that were used to suppress African Americans in Illinois, and sheds light on the struggles that they faced in their fight for equality and civil rights.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
