Sociology
Warner’s study of the city of Natchez in the American Deep South showed that the ‘colour line’ there was:
no longer a powerful influence upon race relations
a way of marking out the land so that black people had less space for housing
a new policy that had been introduced to assimilate black and white groups
a sharp division between black and white castes, underpinned by beliefs about white superiority
a sharp division between black and white castes, underpinned by beliefs about white superiority
Warner set out to compare race and citizenship in a typical southern city and a typical northern city in the USA. He found that whereas the northern city was relatively open and tolerant, Natchez, in the south, showed a sharp horizontal ‘caste’ divide between the dominant white population and the black population. He called this the ‘colour line’. 210-213
