===== Date and country of first publication<ref>Date and country of first publication as informed by the Scopus database (December 2023).</ref>===== 1992<br> United States ===== Definition ===== Anglo segregation refers to the practice of segregating individuals of Anglo descent from other racial and ethnic groups. This type of segregation primarily occurred in the United States, especially during the era of Jim Crow laws and racial segregation in the early to mid-20th century. During this time, Anglo Americans, who were primarily of white European descent, enjoyed social, economic, and political privileges that were denied to non-white racial or ethnic groups. This segregation was enforced through various means, including laws, regulations, and social customs that promoted the separation of different races. Anglo segregation was most evident in the South, where racial segregation was legally mandated in schools, public facilities, transportation, and housing. African Americans and other racial or ethnic minorities were subjected to separate and unequal facilities, services, and opportunities. Anglo segregation also extended to other parts of the country, albeit to a lesser degree. Residential segregation was common in many areas, where neighborhoods were racially homogenous and racially restrictive covenants prevented non-Anglos from buying or renting homes in Anglo-dominated areas. The Civil Rights Movement of the 1950s and 1960s challenged and ultimately dismantled many of these segregationist practices. Civil rights activists fought for the integration of schools, public facilities, and housing, seeking to end the systemic barriers that perpetuated racial inequality. While legal segregation has been abolished, its legacy persists in the form of socioeconomic disparities, racial discrimination, and residential segregation. Efforts to address and eliminate systemic racism continue to be ongoing in many societies. ==See also== ==Related segregation forms== Anglo segregation is frequently discussed in the literature with the following segregation forms: [[residential segregation]], [[puerto rican segregation]] [[File:anglo_segregation.png|780x780px]] This visualization is based on the study [[Segregation_Wiki:About| The Multidisciplinary Landscape of Segregation Research]].
