jan 1, 1896 - The start of Jim Crow Laws

Description:

Jim Crow laws were laws passed to segregate black people from white people. This caused a lot of unfair and violent treatment to black people. Jim Crow laws were upheld in the 1896 supreme court decision (Plessy v. Ferguson) to enforce “seperate but equal,” which, in reality, was very unequal for black people.
