Answer :
Plessy v. Ferguson was a milestone 1896 U.S. Supreme Court decision that maintained the constitutionality of racial segregation under the “separate but equal” doctrine.
The Constitution does not prohibit segregation, it only mandates equal protection under the law.
The underlying case started in 1892 when Homer Plessy, a blended race man, purposely boarded a "whites-in particular" train vehicle in New Orleans. By boarding the whites-just vehicle, Plessy abused Louisiana's Different Vehicle Demonstration of 1890, which required "equal, but separate" railroad facilities for white and non-white travelers. Plessy was charged under the Act, and at his preliminary his legal advisors contended that judge John Howard Ferguson ought to excuse the charges because the Demonstration was unconstitutional. Ferguson denied the solicitation, and the Louisiana Supreme Court maintained Ferguson's decision on bid. Plessy then spoke to the U.S. Supreme Court.
