Plessy v. Ferguson, (1896)
The Supreme Court held a Louisiana state law requiring African-Americans and whites travel in separate railroad cars was constitutional, as long as the facilities provided were separate but equal (the opinion actually says, "equal but separate"). The decision legally sanctioned racist and segregationist policies already in effect, particularly in the South, and encouraged the adoption of discriminatory Jim Crow laws.
