Definition
- Jim Crow laws enacted after the U.S. Civil War mandated racial segregation to restrict or prevent relations between Blacks and Whites and to keep them separate in public places such as restaurants, buses, trains and train stations, schools, and restrooms. In its 1896 ruling in Plessy v. Ferguson, the U.S. Supreme Court sanctioned the “separate but equal” doctrine, and racial segregation in public educational institutions was not ruled unconstitutional until the landmark 1954 case of Brown v. Board of Education. [Source: Encyclopedia of Diversity in Education; Interracial Friendship, Dating, and Marriage]
