The Supreme Court has reversed progress for civil rights in several landmark cases, notably through decisions that have dismantled key protections. For instance, in Shelby County v. Holder (2013), the Court invalidated key provisions of the Voting Rights Act, effectively allowing states to implement voter ID laws and other measures that disproportionately affect minority voters. Similarly, in Plessy v. Ferguson (1896), the Court upheld racial segregation under the "separate but equal" doctrine, which institutionalized discrimination for decades. These rulings have contributed to ongoing inequalities and setbacks in civil rights advancements.
