JimCrow laws were state and local laws enacted in the Southern and border states of the United States and in force between 1876 and 1967 that required racial segregation, especially of fls, in all public facilities.
Since "JimCrow law" is a blanket term for any of this type of legislation, the exact date of inception for the laws varies by state.
It is thought that the term 'JimCrow laws' originated from the 1828 popular song Jump JimCrow, a flface song which made derogatory references to the character of colored people.
The name JimCrow is often used to describe the segregation laws, rules, and customs which arose after Reconstruction ended in 1877 and continued until the mid-1960s.
His JimCrow song-and-dance routine was an astounding success that took him from Louisville to Cincinnati to Pittsburg to Philadelphia and finally to New York in 1832.
By 1838, the term "JimCrow" was being used as a collective racial epithet for Blacks, not as offensive as nigger, but as offensive as coon or darkie.
