Shaw Summary

MS History

Mississippi is a state located in the southeastern region of the United States. It is bordered by Tennessee to the north, Alabama to the east, the Gulf of Mexico to the south, and Louisiana and Arkansas to the west. Mississippi has a rich and diverse history, with its roots stretching back to the early days of the United States.
The first inhabitants of the area that is now Mississippi were Native American tribes, including the Choctaw, Chickasaw, and Natchez. These tribes were largely nomadic, living off the land and trading with other tribes. The first Europeans to explore the area were Spanish explorers in the 16th century. The French later established a colony in the area in the early 1700s, and the British took control of the region in 1763.
In 1817, Mississippi became the 20th state to join the Union. During the 19th century, Mississippi was a major center of the cotton industry, and the state’s economy was heavily dependent on the labor of enslaved African Americans. After the Civil War, Mississippi was the first state to ratify the 13th Amendment, which abolished slavery.
In the early 20th century, Mississippi was a major center of the civil rights movement. In 1954, the Supreme Court ruled in Brown v. Board of Education that segregated schools were unconstitutional, and Mississippi was one of the first states to desegregate its schools. In 1964, the Civil Rights Act was passed, outlawing discrimination based on race, color, religion, sex, or national origin.
