The Black Codes allowed the white Southerners to legally practice enslavement of the African Americans to a greater degree of intense restrictions on the slaves.
Explanation:
After the American Civil War, the laws named 'Black Codes' were passed in 1865 and 1866 in the southern states of the United States of America.
