Jim Crow laws were passed in the South after the Civil War, primarily during the late 19th century. These laws, which enforced racial segregation and discrimination against African Americans, emerged in the wake of Reconstruction, starting around the 1870s and becoming more widespread into the 1890s. They institutionalized the racial inequalities that had persisted even after the abolition of slavery.
