4) Jim Crow laws

Jim Crow laws were a series of restrictions that enforced racial segregation in the United States. They were enacted especially in the Southern States of America through almost a century, from 1877 to the beginning of the Civil Right Movement in the 1950s,

The statutes prohibited African American to attend and be in certain places where white people were, such as neighborhoods, restrooms, building entrances, elevators, cemeteries, amusement-park, cashier windows, churches, hospitals, jails, universities, etc.

In the speech, Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. is clearly talking about these laws, because though in theory the racial segregation was supposed to be "equal" for both races, in practice, the laws were never equal, black people never enjoyed the same benefits that white people enjoyed, and the laws put African American in a place of inferiority and made them uncomfortable.
