The group of laws that promoted the separation of the races in the late 1800s is known as the Jim Crow laws. These laws were enacted primarily in the Southern United States and institutionalized racial segregation in public facilities, schools, transportation, and other areas of daily life. They effectively reinforced the disenfranchisement of African Americans and upheld white supremacy following the Reconstruction era. Jim Crow laws remained in effect until the Civil Rights Movement of the 1960s.
