Well the Jim Crow laws were basically wanting to "create as much division between the races as possible" Here"s a list of examples for you

"It shall be unlawful for a negro and white person to play together or in company with each other in any game of cards or dice, dominoes or checkers" Birmingham, Alabama 1930

"It shall be unlawful for any white prisoner to be handcuffed or otherwise chained or tied to a negro prisoner" Arkansas 1903

"No colored barber shall serve as a barber to white women or girls." Atlanta, Georgia

Again the answer to your question is going to be the "third option" or "create as much division between the races as possible"

I hope my answer has helped you.. good day to you..
