What were jim crow laws?

Jim Crow laws, in U.S. history, statutes enacted by Southern states and municipalities, beginning in the 1880s, that legalized segregation between blacks and whites. The name is believed to be derived from a character in a popular minstrel song. From the 1880s into the 1960s, a majority of American states enforced segregation through "Jim Crow" laws (so called after a black character in minstrel shows). From Delaware to California, and from North Dakota to Texas, many states (and cities, too) could impose legal punishments on people for consorting with members of another race. The most common types of laws forbade intermarriage and ordered business owners and public institutions to keep their black and white clientele separated

The Reconstruction implemented by Congress, which lasted from 1866 to 1877, was aimed at reorganizing the Southern states so that the newly freed slaves would have rights of citizenship; government would no longer be led by the confederacy and other community needs. This had mixed success; most states were readmitted to the union but by 1890 many had reenacted laws (Jim Crow) and elected people in favor of segregation. Not until the 1960s was there much change.
