The use of "racial etiquette" assumes that a race is whole when it comes to their customs. This is the same as stereotyping a race, and just as close to racism. The word etiquette makes this automatically contradictive. In other words, there is no racial etiquette.

The best etiquette to use when meeting those person's of other races is to find what those persons as individualsprefer.

This is just a euphemism for political correctness. i.e., an illegal alien is now an undocumented worker. Verbal misdirection and camouflage, and manners don't come into it.

Answer:It would be the etiquette of knowing the customs of the people with whom you are dealing, and respecting those customs. Etiquette is the practice of knowing a proper way of doing thing, that you might make other persons comfortable, or not embarrass yourself by appearing ignorant of such thing.

IE, shaking with your right hand, rather than your left, and knowing why. Not crossing your legs, or putting your feet up, in a way that shows the soles of your shoes to people, etc.

What are the differences between the Jim crow laws and racial etiquette?

Jim Crow laws were state and local statutes enacted in the late 19th and early 20th centuries that enforced racial segregation and discrimination against African Americans, institutionalizing inequality in areas like education, transportation, and public facilities. In contrast, racial etiquette refers to the unwritten social norms and behaviors that dictated how Black people were expected to interact with white individuals, reinforcing subservience and maintaining the racial hierarchy. While Jim Crow laws provided legal frameworks for segregation, racial etiquette operated on a social level, influencing everyday interactions and reinforcing the same discriminatory attitudes. Together, they created a pervasive environment of racial oppression in the United States.
