Plessy v Ferguson, a Supreme Court case in 1896, established the "separate but equal" doctrine, which allowed for racial segregation in public facilities as long as they were equal in quality. This decision strengthened segregation laws and made it more difficult to challenge them legally. It provided a legal basis for continuing racial discrimination and limited the ability of those fighting against segregation to argue that it violated the rights of African Americans.
