Segregation laws--Plessy v. Ferguson allowed for legal segregation. The South created a set of laws referred to as the Jim Crow Laws.

Jim Crow laws regulated jobs, transportation, public facilities, schools, and more. The laws were a formal, legal form of segregation lasting about 80 years in the South.
