===== Definition ===== 

Racial territorial segregation refers to the separation of people of different races into geographic areas or neighborhoods based on their racial or ethnic backgrounds. This practice has been historically prevalent in many countries, including the United States during the era of legalized racial segregation known as "Jim Crow" laws. Under these laws, African Americans were often relegated to separate and often inferior neighborhoods. 

Racial territorial segregation can result from a variety of factors, including systemic discrimination, socioeconomic disparities, and racial bias. It can have significant impact on the overall quality of life and opportunities available to individuals living in segregated areas.

While racial territorial segregation has decreased in many countries since the civil rights movement, it still persists to some extent in certain regions. Efforts to combat segregation have included fair housing legislation, positive social engineering, and grassroots community organizing. The goal is to create more inclusive and equitable communities that promote diversity and reduce racial disparities.
