A community portal about Jim Crow laws with blogs, videos, and photos. According to Wikipedia.org: The Jim Crow Laws were state and local laws enacted in the Southern and border states of the United States and in force between 1876 and 1965 and affected Asians and many other races. "Jim Crow period" or the "Jim Crow era" refers to the time during which this practice occurred. The most important laws required that public schools and most public places have separate facilities for whites and blacks. State-sponsored school segregation was declared unconstitutional by the Supreme Court in 1954 in Brown v. Board of Education. All the other Jim Crow laws were repealed by the Civil Rights Act of 1964.
