Segregation is a relatively recent phase in the long history of the White man's ways of controlling the Negro and fixing his status, his place. There have been other and harsher phases, including bondage and limited servitude. Slavery, peonage and abortive types of apprenticeship have had their day. Exploitation of the Negro by the White man goes back to the beginning of relations between the races, and so do race conflict, brutality and injustice, mitigated in some degree by various types of paternalism. Along with these practices there developed the old assumptions of Anglo-Saxon superiority and African inferiority, White supremacy and Negro subordination.
