The correct answer is letter A.

Explanation:  The laws were intended to give African Americans even less rights in society by forcing them to change to the North (Great Migration).

Jim Crow Laws was state and local laws enacted in the United States that institutionalized racial segregation, affecting African Americans, Asians, and other ethnic groups. Effective between 1876 and 1965. A "Jim Crow epoch" or a "Jim Crow era" refers to the time when this practice occurs. Major laws require that public schools and most public places (including trains and buses) have separate facilities for whites and blacks. These Jim Crow Laws were distinct from the Black Codes (1800-1866), which restricted African American civil liberties and rights.
