David Cunningham describes Jim Crow segregation as both a system of laws and a system of customs.

The difference between laws and customs are that laws are less apt to change as frequently as customs. Customs are usually hereditary cultural traditions handed down over generations that may be altered by assimilation or associations with other culture (s). Laws are usually put into place by a governing body and enforced by that government.
