Segregation laws in the United States, commonly known as Jim Crow laws, began to be enacted in the late 19th century, following the Reconstruction era. The first of these laws appeared in the 1880s, with many states implementing various forms of racial segregation in public facilities, schools, and transportation. These laws remained in effect until the Civil Rights Movement of the 1960s, which sought to dismantle institutionalized racism and segregation.
