Jim Crow laws were a set of state and local laws in the United States that enforced racial segregation and discrimination against African Americans from the late 19th century through the mid-1960s. These laws kept blacks from voting, attending public schools, and participating equally in a wide variety of social institutions, such as churches, restaurants, and public transportation. Jim Crow laws were used to maintain racial segregation and prevent blacks from achieving political and social equality.
