Jim Crow laws A.) created a racially segregated society. Jim Crow laws were racially motivated laws that created lawfully enforced racial segregation in the South. Segregation forced the separation based upon race in restaurants, schools, public areas, and many others. These oppressive laws came down as a result of the Civil Rights Movement in the 1950s and the major Supreme Court decisions which followed including Brown v. Board of Education and others.
