Racism today is alot more suppressed compared to racism in the past. Back then, there were seperate facilities, signs against colored people, and laws that backed up that ideal society. Southern states came up with a system with legal policies for racial discrimination. Blacks had a hard time voting, they were given harder documents to answer and literacy they didn't understand, nor sometime in the english language. There was the "Grandfather Clause" which stated white people could still be eligible to vote even if they didn't pay taxes if their dad, or grandfather was able to vote before January 1, 1867.
