1. Why do think Southern racist politicians chose to frame their defense of racial segregation through the language of “law and order”? What special advantages was this choice of words going to give them?

They chose to do it through language of “law and order” because thats the only way they could control them still. This gave them the advantage of having the upper hand on them and being able to create these propagandas and racial injustices.

  1. Do you think the Southern Strategy is still influencing American politics? Give an example supporting your answer. Yes i definitely do think it influences America politics because there are different types of groups to support that have different perspectives. Some are “oldschool” aka southern strategy and kind of racist. While others try to support someone with other techniques. Our laws also mold America politics and injustices that happen.
