Definition

{NoteAI} Constitutional segregation refers to the practice of segregating individuals based on their race, religion, or other characteristics in a way that is authorized or supported by the government or constitution. This type of segregation was seen in the United States during the Jim Crow era, where laws were passed to enforce the separation of races in public facilities, schools, and other areas of society. Constitutional segregation has been widely condemned as a violation of civil rights and equal protection under the law.
