Nataliya [291]

Answer:

They passed the Jim Crow Laws.

Explanation:

Jim Crow laws was the widespread unofficial name of laws on racial segregation in some southern states during the post-Reconstruction period, that went from 1890 to 1964.

After the Civil War, which freed blacks from slavery, the federal government took steps to ensure their civil and political rights through the passing of the 13th, 14th, 15th amendments to the Constitution, and Civil Rights Acts of 1866 and 1875. In response, Southern Democrats passed local laws that severely restricted the rights of the black minority, as well as Indians who refused deportation to Oklahoma and remained under the jurisdiction of the US government in the southeastern states.

The beginning of the "Jim Crow Laws" era is considered to be 1890, when racial segregation on the railroad was introduced in Louisiana. By 1915, every southern state had passed laws that established segregation in educational institutions, hotels, shops, restaurants, hospitals, transportation, and toilets. There were also restrictions related to voting: electoral tax and literacy test, which applied only to blacks.
