Forced segregation refers to the governmental or institutional policy of separating different racial or ethnic groups, often based on criteria such as skin color or national origin. This practice has been used historically to establish and maintain racial hierarchy and control, particularly in the context of racism and discrimination against minority groups. Forced segregation can manifest in various forms, such as separate schools, housing, public facilities, transportation, and communities for different racial or ethnic groups. It has been a significant issue in many countries, particularly during periods of heightened racial tension and social inequality. Examples of forced segregation include apartheid in South Africa, the Jim Crow laws in the United States, and the Indian residential school system in Canada.
