How is the term Jim crow offensive?

Answer 1

The origins of the term "Jim Crow" are offensive in a number of ways. Among them are:

• The widespread use of the term was originated by a white man.
• The term can be seen as a condescending and offensive reference to skin color and to the idea that African Americans were in some way less than human.
• Most importantly, the use of the term comes out of the tradition of "minstrel shows." These were shows that were inherently racist in that they were based around making fun of the supposed stupidity of African Americans.

Of course, the origin of the term is in no way as offensive as the laws that were referred to as "Jim Crow laws." Offensiveness is bad, but actual legal segregation and discrimination is worse.
