'''Uppity''' sometimes '''uppidy''' is defined as taking liberties or assuming airs beyond one's place in a social hierarchy. Assuming equality with someone higher up the social ladder.  The term was coined by [[Democrat]]s and [[Ku Klux Klan]]smen to describe [[African American]]s taking advantage of [[Republican]] [[civil rights]] efforts to promote Black equality after the [[Civil War]]. In addition, it was also used by the racist Democrat [[Lyndon B. Johnson]] while talking to his colleague [[Richard Russell Jr.]] over conspiring to hold back the progress of black Americans and keep blacks on the [[Democrat plantation]].<ref>[https://www.goodreads.com/quotes/7107768-these-negroes-they-re-getting-pretty-uppity-these-days-and-that-s Quote by Lyndon B.
