Check out the origin of the Jim Crow laws; blacks fought hard to have 
them passed. The major problem was that they were not enforced (in that 
equal facilities, or even close to equal facilities, were seldom 
provided; the Brown vs. Board of Education determined that it was 
impossible to ensure that the facilities were equal, and therefore 
determined that they were inherently unequal.

Can you give me an example of a non-screwball group calling for a 
return of the Jim Crow laws?

I did. The only possible valid piece in there was the 1947 LSD 
experiments by the CIA.

There has been much speculation, and not a shred of evidence.
