The correct cases and their results between Brown v. Board of Education and Plessy v. Ferguson were:
Brown v. Board of Education:
Said segregation was NOT ALLOWED.
This case OVERTURNED the precedent.
Plessy v. Ferguson:
Coined the term "Separate but equal"
Said that segregation (separation based on skin color) was ALLOWED.
<h3>How were Plessy v. Ferguson and Brown v. Board of Education different?</h3>
Plessy v. Ferguson was a case in the U.S. Supreme Court which affirmed that segregation based on skin color was allowed so long as both races were still treated equally.
Board of Education overturned the precedent and said that segregation by its very nature was not equal and so could not be allowed.
