In Mississippi, common facilities that were segregated included public schools, restrooms, water fountains, restaurants, and public transportation. This segregation was a result of Jim Crow laws that enforced racial discrimination and separation between white and Black residents. Additionally, parks, libraries, and hospitals often had separate facilities or services based on race. The impact of these practices was profound, contributing to systemic inequalities that persisted for decades.
