You are correct in that it allowed this practice...but are woefully ignorant to believe that it was only implemented in the South.
No segregation in Boston? Chicago? Philadelphia? Detroit?...etc...etc...
Please show us the relevant laws in Boston, Chicago, Philadelphia, Detroit, etc.

Are you really claiming that laws are necessary to establish segregation?

Laws are necessary for a government to establish segregation, which is what was done in the south and what Plessy v. Ferguson, which you brought up, was about. If you want to show a parallel with the "North," then show the laws.

Wrong again.
Laws are not necessary to establish segregation.
Local practice and government indifference are all that is needed.

The North held a silent racism; the south a brutal one.

Laws are necessary for a GOVERNMENT to establish segregation. That's what the southern states did, and what Plessy v. Ferguson was all about. If you can't provide the laws, then the comparison you tried to make is as bogus as the rest of your posts. But we all knew that anyway.
