What color were Homer Adolph Plessy's parents?

Homer A. Plessy was the petitioner in the landmark US Supreme Court case Plessy v. Ferguson, 163 US 537 (1896) that validated the "separate but equal" doctrine and lead to generations of oppressive Jim Crow laws in the United States.Plessy was of mixed heritage, but was seven-eighths white. Both of Plessy's parents were listed as free persons of color, so it's impossible to tell which ancestors in the lineage on each side were African-American.Plessy had very light skin and admitted he could "pass" as white, although he had enough African traits to be able to challenge the Louisiana Separate Cars Act, 1890 legislation that enforced segregation in intrastate railway travel. Plessy belonged to a group called the "Citizens' Committee" that deliberately provoked subtle confrontation over the law.Lead Counsel for the case, Albion Tourgee, purposely chose Plessy for his light complexion, but wasn't simply trying to elevate the status of lighter-skinned African-Americans, as some of his contemporary darker-skinned peers criticized him of doing. Tourgee was a brilliant strategist who wanted equality for all African-Americans.

What was the effect of the us supreme court decision in plessy ferguson?

Plessy v. Ferguson (1896) declared state segregation laws constitutional, as long as African-Americans were provided "separate but equal" facilities. Plessy represented a continued erosion of the Fourteenth Amendment by allowing Jim Crow laws to flourish, particularly in the South.These laws permitted many whites who felt threatened by emancipation to maintain a delusion of superiority. The act of segregation made African-Americans appear inferior and encouraged racism to continue unchecked for decades.Case Citation:Plessy v. Ferguson, 163 US 537 (1896)The effect of Plessy v. Fergusson was that it was lawful for government, common carriers, and places of public accommodation to discriminate against people in the provision of goods and services and rights based upon the color of their skin as long as they were provided "separate but equal" accommodations.The "Separate but Equal" doctrine was enactedthis meant that public places were still segregated however the had equal qualityFor example: There is a School for white children and a school for African American Children. they separate but they have the same books and materials.if you don't understand than search the "Separate but Equal" doctrineIt established that separate but equal facilities for different races were not acting against the law in anyway.

Who was Homer Plessy and what role did he play in the Plessy v Ferguson case?

Plessy v Ferguson, 163 US 537 (1896)Who was Homer Plessy?Homer Plessy was a citizen of New Orleans, Louisiana, classified as an "Octoroon" by 19th-Century standards, meaning he was one-eighth African in descent. Plessy had one black grandmother, a Haitian "free woman of color," named Catherine Mathieu, who married and bore eight children with Homer's French Caucasian grandfather, Germain Plessy. Homer was very light-skinned, and said his African heritage was "not discernible."Plessy belonged to a group of New Orleans' African-American professionals, the Citizens Committee, that deliberately staged confrontations over Jim Crow (segregation) laws in Louisiana.What role did Homer Plessy play in the case?In 1890, the Louisiana State Legislature passed the Separate Car Act (Act 111), which enforced "separate but equal" travel accommodations in railway transportation. The Act stated: "...all railway companies carrying passengers in their coaches in this state shall provide equal but separate accommodations for the white, and the colored races, by providing two or more passenger coaches for each passenger train, or by dividing the passenger coaches by a partition so as to secure separate accommodations" Violation of the law was a misdemeanor crime punishable by a $25.00 fine or a 20-days jail sentence.Daniel Desdunes, one of the leaders of the Citizens' Committee, was first to challenge the law. He purchased a first-class ticket from the Louisiana & Nashville Railroad to travel from New Orleans, LA, to Montgomery, AL, across state lines. Before his case could be tried in court, however, the Louisiana Supreme Court voted to uphold federal Interstate Commerce Clause regulations prohibiting segregation in railway transit, rendering Desdunes' case moot.The Citizens' Committee raised $3,000 to finance a second dispute, and enlisted New York attorney Albion Tourgee, a well-known former judge and civil rights activist, to provide advice and legal counsel. Tourgee suggested the next attempt to challenge the law should be made by someone with a light complexion, a suggestion that offended some members of the Committee.Homer Plessy was selected as an appropriate candidate to challenge the law. Plessy purchased a first-class ticket on the East Louisiana Railroad on June 7, 1982, boarded the first-class "whites only" railroad coach, and took a seat. The trip was entirely within the state of Louisiana, so the Railroad was required to follow State, rather than Federal, laws.Because Plessy did not appear to have any African-American heritage, the Committee conspired with the East Louisiana Railroad, which wanted the Separate Car Act overturned for economic reasons, to challenge Plessy's right to sit in the segregated coach. They also hired a private detective to ride along and make a citizen's arrest, to ensure Plessy was charged with breaking the law.When the conductor made his rounds to check tickets, he asked Plessy if he was white or "colored." Plessy replied that he was "colored." Railroad officials conspiring with the Citizens' Committee insisted Plessy remove himself to the Jim Crow car; Plessy refused; and the private detective arrested him on charges of violating the Separate Car Act.Plessy was brought before Judge Ferguson in the Criminal District Court for the Parish of New Orleans, but refused to enter a plea. His attorneys, Tourgee and local counsel John C. Walker, argued the law was unconstitutional under the Thirteenth Amendment. Judge Ferguson found Plessy guilty and fined him $500.Plessy's attorneys appealed to the Louisiana Supreme Court, which affirmed the lower court decision, then to the US Supreme Court. At that point, Plessy's active role in the case was complete.For more information, see Related Questions, below.
