Jim Crow

Japanese: ジム・クロー(英語表記)Jim Crow
Jim Crow
A law that established segregation laws for blacks in both the North and South of the United States from the late 19th century to the early 20th century. The origin of the name is unclear, but it is said to come from a repeated phrase in a minstrel show song written by T.D. Rice. Unlike the semi-customary separation during the slavery era, the Black Codes institutionalized strict and systematic separation of blacks and whites in all public facilities, including schools, railroads, restaurants, theaters, and hotels. Unlike the Black Codes that were established in southern states immediately after the Civil War, they are not a direct legacy of slavery.

Japanese:
アメリカで19世紀末から20世紀初頭にかけて成立した,南北両域にわたる黒人分離法。名称の起源は定かではないが,T.D.ライスが作ったミンストレル・ショーの歌の繰返し句に由来するともいわれる。奴隷制時代のなかば慣習的な分離とは異なって,学校,鉄道,食堂,劇場,ホテルにいたるあらゆる公共施設において,厳密で組織的な黒人と白人の分離を制度化した。南北戦争直後の南部各州で成立したブラック・コードとは異なり,奴隷制の直接の遺産ではない。
