Caramell says: Jim Crow Laws are laws that are passed in the South after Reconstruction enforcing the segregation of blacks and whites. In other Words, it let everybody have the same things but they couldn't have it together. Blacks and Whites had separate buses, trains,resturaunts,hotels,theaters,schools,parks,stores and everything. They were finally equal. The law started because many immigrants blacks, and poor whites were fighting prejudice, which means that they weren't getting equal respect and they were treated badly. It started in 1870. I know all of this because I'm 10.
