Answer:
Congress took control of Reconstruction from President Johnson
Step-by-step explanation:
The Civil Rights Act of 1866 was created by Congress to grant African Americans additional rights—to an extent—after the black codes were implemented throughout the South in 1865. This law made it possible for Black people to engage into contracts, rent or buy property, and file legal claims (against fellow African Americans).
The railways were on Homer Plessy's side in the Plessy v. Ferguson case, although this went mostly unreported. It appears that big business realized the immediate and long-term costs of maintaining two economies, one with white customers and the other with consumers of color.
Jim Crow was a costly method of persuading low-income white people that looking down on African Americans would make their situation better while ignoring things like better wages, better working conditions, health care, pensions, etc. Naturally, the NAACP had a lawyer who believed that suing for "separate but equal" in every possible county would end Jim Crow. Thurgood Marshall, the attorney, turned out to be correct.
Socially, as time went on, more and more individuals expressed frustration with the laws and their negative effects on the economy. Ask the white ladies in Montgomery, Alabama, who were furious that their maids needed to use an alternate mode of transportation to work. That's right, white ladies from the middle and higher classes backed the bus boycott. Why? It turned out that white ladies thought it was just as ridiculous to make African Americans pay in the front of the bus, get off, and then get back on via the rear door.
In the end, the economic cost of Jim Crow destroyed the codes and the social structure it created. We are still trying to rebuild upon its ashes.
