Description:
The Plessy v Ferguson case looked at how constitutional segregation was and if it violated the 14th amendment (citizens rights and equal protection of the laws) This case created the quote, "Separate but Equal" which means that as long as blacks had the same things as whites, there was nothing wrong with segregation.
