the decision of plessy vs. ferguson
== == Plessy v. Ferguson == ==
The decision in the US Supreme Court case Plessy v. Ferguson, (1896) affirmed the "separate but equal" doctrine that promoted segregation, various forms of legalized discrimination (such as Jim Crow laws), and indirectly sanctioned hatred and racism.
Plessy v. Ferguson upheld the south's practice of 'separate but equal' policies, a/k/a 'Jim Crow Laws'.
The US Supreme Court's decision in Plessy v. Ferguson,(1896) upheld laws allowing racial discrimination, colloquially known as "Jim Crow" laws. The Court declared these laws were constitutional and not in violation of the Thirteenth or Fourteenth Amendments as long as African-Americans were provided "separate but equal" accommodations (which was rarely the case).
No, just the opposite. Plessy v. Ferguson, (1896) validated the practice of segregation and provided a foundation for the expansion of racist Jim Crow laws. Brown v. Board of Education, (1954) overturned Plessy, holding that "separate but equal" is unconstitutional.
No. Public schools were already segregated in many parts of the United States prior to the Plessy v. Ferguson,(1896) case. The Supreme Court decision in Plessy validated the "separate but equal" doctrine, and lead to the entrenchment of Jim Crow laws that discriminated against African-Americans.Brown v. Board of Education, (1954), is the Supreme Court case that overturned the decision in Plessy and lead to the integration of public schools.
