No, black codes were a tool designed by the South to keep emancipated slaves in the societal position they were in before emancipation. They were laws that prohibited freedmen from testifying in court against a white person or marrying a white person.

Is anyone allowed to stop me from dating a black man just because I am White?

No. It's a free country. Interracial dating/marriage between black men and white women or between black women and white men are allowed. If you're a white and you want to date a black man go for it. No one is allowed to stop you. Not even white people who hate black people or black people who hate white people. It's none of their business.

It was informative but I didn't like the way White people treated Black people. It was terrible back then; kidnapping them, selling them, buying them, making them work as slaves without paying them, beating them, raping the Black women. I'm glad I wasn't born back then.
