Black codes or laws that were enacted after the Civil War to oppress African Americans and prevent equality for people of color.

This week we are looking at the Black codes or laws that were enacted after the Civil War to oppress African Americans and prevent equality for people of color. For the follow up. Look at the website that explains the History of Racist Laws in America. Summarize the Jim Crow laws (1876-1965) for your peers. Do not limit yourself to only laws against African Americans…any law that goes against an American’s right for equality has a dramatic effect on the society as a whole. Please provide at least 2-3 sources.
