Between 1923 and 1940, racial segregation in prisons was a widespread practice in the United States. Black inmates were often housed in separate facilities or designated sections of prisons, with inferior conditions compared to their white counterparts. This segregation extended to various aspects of prison life, including labor assignments, recreational activities, and access to education and healthcare. The policies reflected the broader societal norms of racial discrimination and segregation prevalent during this era.
