Answer 2

Segregation in the United States began when freed Black slaves found out that even in the Federal Northern States were not allowed to vote or hold public office.

Despite the fact that most people in the US's Northern States believed that slavery was a social evil, they did not view freed slaves as equals, thus the laws preventing even freed slaves the civil rights enjoyed by people in the North.

Taking another approach, it can be said that the introduction of slavery in the USA was indeed segregation as slaves were considered property and were "segregated" from the main stream of American society.
