Thanks to the Compromise of 1877, the era of Reconstruction in the South ended. Reconstruction was the period after the Civil War in which the federal government took an enormous role in helping former slaves to adjust to life as US citizens. However, thanks to the Compromise of 1877, the federal government stopped these efforts in the southern states, allowing for legal segregation to take place.
After 1877, Southern states instituted different places for black and white citizens. This included restaurants, movie theaters, parks, and schools. This legal segregation would be further supported by the Supreme Court in their ruling of Plessy vs. Ferguson.

Testosterone is the hormone that causes most of the changes in a boy's body during puberty, and men need sperm to be able to reproduce. In girls, the hormone, estrogen, targets the two ovaries, which contain eggs that have been in the girl's body since she was born. Have a good day :)
Answer:
Although I could never know the hardships that people went through during the era of Jim Crow, I would think that the African American community would be frustrated about how they had been treated during the time. People such as Rosa Parks and Martin Luther King Jr. stood up for themselves and their people and helped with the racial injustices. It must have been hard, and to be brought up in a community in which you are put down and segregated because of something as insignificant as the color of your skin, where racism was justified by people in power. Growing up with the mindset that people don't appreciate you because of how you look must have been hard to understand, but something that was frequent and became the mindset of many. To put it in simpler terms, it must have been extremely tough.
Explanation:
Again, these are just my thoughts on how people must have felt, I myself have not experienced any of these hardships in life and I hope I did not come across the wrong way.
This series of laws was called the Black Codes.
Most Black Codes were passed in 1865-66 in Southern states to control the conduct of newly-freed African Americans after the Civil War.
Depending on the state, they established rules regarding:
- the legitimacy of black people's jobs (if their work was not recognized by whites, they could be considered criminal vagrants),
- their right to own property (like land) or businesses,
- their movement through public spaces,
- their right to carry weapons,
- their right to marry or live with whites, etc.
