Whites attempted to repress African Americans in the South through a combination of legal, social, and economic means. Jim Crow laws enforced racial segregation and disenfranchised Black voters, while violent groups like the Ku Klux Klan terrorized Black communities through lynching and intimidation. Additionally, discriminatory practices in employment and education further marginalized African Americans, maintaining a system of inequality and oppression. These efforts aimed to uphold white supremacy and limit the rights and opportunities of Black citizens.
