Jim Crow-lagar kallas de lagar som stiftades i USA mellan åren 1876 och 1965 i syfte att upprätthålla rassegregeringen i samhället. Lagarna innefattade både faktiska raslagar som explicit riktades mot minoritetsfolkgrupper och mer allmänt formulerade ordningslagar som möjliggjorde förföljelser av samma grupper. Jim Crow-lagarna är mest kända från och var mest omfattande i Sydstaterna, men exempel förekom i nästan samtliga delstater.
