The unequal relations between Black and White people in the 19th-century United
States, particularly after the abolition of slavery, stemmed from a complex interplay of
social, economic, and political factors. Here are some key reasons for these disparities:
1. Legislation and Legal Framework
• Black Codes: After the Civil War, many Southern states enacted Black Codes,
laws designed to restrict the freedom of African Americans and ensure their
availability as a labor force. These laws enforced racial segregation and denied
Black people basic rights, further entrenching inequalities.
• Jim Crow Laws: By the end of the 19th century, Jim Crow laws institutionalized
racial segregation and discrimination across the South, severely limiting the civil
rights of Black Americans and perpetuating a system of racial hierarchy.
2. Economic Disparities
