Jim Crow is a name, but not the name of a person. The words "Jim Crow" are symbolic of racism - especially in the United States. To live in a Jim Crow nation means that the nation has rules that treat their people differently because of their ethnicity. Most of the time, however, the state does not treat them fairly, but as one race is inferior to the other(s).
