"Most African Americans followed the Jim Crow laws,
using a mask of compliance to prevent becoming victims
of racially motivated violence. To maintain self-esteem and dignity,
African Americans such as Anthony Overton and Mary McLeod
Bethune continued to build their own schools, churches, banks,
social clubs, and other businesses.[17]"
