Description
The Jim Crow Era was characterized by a series of state and local laws introduced in the Southern United States in the late 19th and early 20th centuries that enforced racial segregation. These laws remained in force until the 1960s. Formal (de jure) and informal (de facto) segregation policies were present in other areas of the United States as well, even if several states outside the South had banned discrimination in public accommodations and voting. In this topic, students will analyze primary and secondary sources to gain an understanding of how both de jure and de facto segregation during this time period affected society.
