Segregation was a big part of America. Segregation happened after slavery was ended.. I believe that the segregation was targeted at African Americans due to people not seeing them as an equal individual. They were to different to be accepted by most citizens. This is a big problem because people didn't want them to have the free right to anything, but the government wanted otherwise.
Because Slavery had ended, people still didn’t want to see African Americans as equal, because they still didn’t want to get rid of there slaves. They also never before had to be nice or treat them like a person. They seen African Americans as workers, and not friends or citizens. They had to spend money to pay people to do farm work instead of just using a slave.
