Final answer:

Jim Crow laws enforced segregation between whites and blacks, supported by the Plessy v. Ferguson decision, despite the Civil Rights Act of 1875.


Explanation:

Jim Crow laws were implemented in southern states to segregate whites and blacks in public places and limit the rights and opportunities of African Americans, despite the Civil Rights Act of 1875. These laws aimed to uphold the doctrine of 'separate but equal', which was supported by the Plessy v. Ferguson Supreme Court decision in 1896, rather than promoting equality or supporting the Fifteenth Amendment.
