What happened to segregation laws after the case of pleasure v. Ferguson

History

Plessy v. Ferguson, 163 U.S. 537 (1896), was a landmark decision of the U.S. Supreme Court issued in 1896. It upheld the constitutionality of racial segregation laws for public facilities as long as the segregated facilities were equal in quality, a doctrine that came to be known as "separate but equal".[2] This legitimized the state laws re-establishing racial segregation that were passed in the American South in the late 19th century after the end of the Reconstruction Era. The decision was handed down by a vote of 7 to 1, with the majority opinion written by Justice Henry Billings Brown and the lone dissent written by Justice John Marshall Harlan.

Segregation laws grew in strength immeasurably. This is because the case of Plessy v Ferguson established that the doctrine of separate but equal was constitutional and thus made it possible for the government to legally segregate African-Americans by making them separate but "equal". This case lasted for 50 years and more until the civil rights movement managed to win and abolish the doctrine.

How were japan and china similar to each other
svp [43]
Not very.

Size - Dissimilar.: China is 25 times larger than Japan.Population - Dissimilar.: China has over 10 times the population of Japan.Geography - Dissimilar.: China is a mainland state while Japan is an archipelago.Spoken language - Dissimilar.: Japanese is an atonal language with roughly 15 gradations of politeness for different situations, while Mandarin, the official state language of China, is a tonal language with no tense or gender. Speakers of Japanese typically attempt to say as little as possible as politely as possible while speakers of Mandarin typically attempt to say as much as possible in as few words as possible.Written language - Similar: Both dominantly use variants of a historical Chinese writing system, with Japan having adopted it in the 4th or 5th Century AD. Readers of Chinese and Japanese are typically able to puzzle some meaning out of the other language, but the written languages have diverged substantially, especially with 20th Century China's simplification of hanji. And of course they are pronounced completely differently.Religion - Dissimilar.: Japan practices Buddhism, Shinto and Christianity. China officially had no religion for a long time, but is more Buddhist than anything else. The Chinese state endorses Confucianism, which is more a historical philosophy than a religion.Ethnicity - Similar: China is 91.5% ethnically Han with 55 minorities. Japan is 98.5% Japanese with a smattering of Korean, Chinese and other. Genetically, Han and Japanese are identical.Politics - Dissimilar.: China is a centrally managed post-Communist state that is not democratic. Japan is a parliamentary democracy with a relatively powerless hereditary monarchy similar to England.GDP per capita - Dissimilar: China has a 2015 GDP per capita of $8,154 USD while Japan's is over four times larger at $33,223 USD.

PLEASE HELP WILL GIVE BRAINLIEST!!!!!!!!!!
otez555 [7]

Answer: The entire system of the 3 branches of the government are essential because they all protect the people's freedoms as a citizen will create a fine balancing act that will promote a democratic society. The Legislative branch (the branch responsible for making the countries laws), Executive branch (the branch that is responsible for implementing laws that are created by the Legislative branch.) and the Judicial branch (Supreme Court) keep each other in the loop and prevent one of the branches, could be any branch, of our government from becoming more successful and powerful than the rest of the branches.

Hope this helps you out! ☺
