Many of you told me you appreciated the first Black History Quiz, so I decided to do another. Here’s the first one for those who missed it:

The average score on the first one was 55% correct. That’s not considered failing; it’s learning. I hope you enjoy this one as well. Please highlight what you believe to be the correct answers. The answers are provided at the bottom.

  1. Who provided the most support for the Scottsboro Boys after falsely being accused of rape?

A. The NAACP

B. The Republican Party

C. The Democratic Party

D. The Communist Party

2. What was the primary cause for the high number of births of enslaved people from 1798 to 1865?

A. Natural Increase

B. Forced Breeding

C. Rape

D. Answers B & C

3. What US Senator blocked expansion into Mexico because there were “too many Mexicans.”

Stories in this publication will focus on Black History and a little White History that has been distorted. We’ll focus on people and policies and the impact they continue to have on America today.
