Definition

State segregation refers to the practice of separating or segregating people by race, ethnicity, or other social categories within a particular state or region. This term often refers specifically to the racial segregation that was legally enforced in many states in the United States from the late 19th century through the mid-20th century.

During this period, Jim Crow laws were implemented in many southern states, which enforced racial segregation in public facilities, schools, housing, and transportation. These laws were upheld by the Supreme Court decision in Plessy v. Ferguson (1896), which established the "separate but equal" doctrine.

State segregation was a systemic form of discrimination and oppression that enforced racial hierarchies and limited opportunities for African Americans and other minority groups. It resulted in separate and unequal living conditions, education, and employment opportunities for people of different races.

The Civil Rights Movement of the 1950s and 1960s led to a gradual dismantling of state segregation, primarily through legal victories such as Brown v. Board of Education (1954) and the Civil Rights Act of 1964. However, the legacy of state segregation continues to impact communities and contribute to racial disparities in areas such as education, housing, and wealth accumulation.
