may 18, 1896 - Plessy vs Ferguson

Description:

The United States Supreme Court rules that racial segregation is allowed and does not violate the 14th Amendment, so long as facilities provide "equal" services to everyone. It is often forgotten to time that Anomalies were excluded from the ruling, meaning that they had no laws or rules regarding how they were treated or what was accessible to them.
