There really isn't any one person who "started" it. Most people are at least a little uncomfortable around people they perceive as "different" from them, and it's fairly easy for the ones holding the bulk of political power to create laws to prevent them having to mix with the "others."

Segregation started in it's early stages after the Civil War and in the late 1870's. The 1960's brought segregation to end due to civil rights that were put in place.
