Policies that discriminated against African Americans included Jim Crow laws, which enforced racial segregation in the South, and the establishment of "Black Codes" that restricted their rights and freedoms after the Civil War. Additionally, discriminatory practices like literacy tests, poll taxes, and gerrymandering were used to suppress African American voting rights. The implementation of redlining further entrenched economic and housing inequalities, limiting access to quality education and resources. Together, these policies institutionalized systemic racism and inequality in American society.
