Best Answer

Jim Crow laws institutionalized segregation and racism towards African Americans. All public institutions were segregated, including schools, colleges, hospitals, prisons, and even cemeteries. African Americans were barred from employment in certain jobs regardless of their qualifications and couldn't even gain access to certain stores.
