What where the laws called that separated black people from white people?

The laws that enforced racial segregation in the United States were called Jim Crow laws. These laws, enacted primarily in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, mandated the separation of Black and white individuals in various public spaces, including schools, transportation, and restrooms. They institutionalized a system of racial discrimination and inequality that persisted until the Civil Rights Movement of the 1960s led to their eventual repeal.
