Blacks were historically excluded from serving on juries primarily due to systemic racism and discriminatory laws. Many jurisdictions implemented legal barriers, such as literacy tests and property requirements, that disproportionately affected Black individuals. Additionally, societal prejudices and the belief in the inferiority of Black people perpetuated their exclusion from jury duty, reinforcing a cycle of injustice within the legal system. These practices were rooted in the broader context of segregation and inequality in American society.
