The Southern states passed a set of laws restricting the rights of blacks. These laws came to be known as the Jim Crow Laws. The laws were passed because most white Southerners were not willing to recognize rights to African Americans.
Explanation:
The Jim Crow Laws were state and local laws of the United States promulgated between 1876 and 1965. They represented a mandate for racial segregation in all public establishments in the southern states of the former Confederation, starting in 1890 with the status of "separate but equal" for African Americans. The separation led to a restoration of the conditions of African Americans, which tended to be lower than those set for white Americans, and to systematize a series of economic, educational and social disadvantages. The de jure segregation was mainly applied in the South. The segregation in the North was generally de facto, with segregation patterns in terms of housing forced into rental contracts, in bank lending practices and labor discrimination, including discriminatory trade union practices for decades.

Under the Articles, the national government consisted of a unicameral (one-house) legislature (often called the Confederation Congress); there was no national executive or judiciary. Delegates to Congress were appointed by the state legislatures, and each state had one vote.
