Did the court make the right decision in Plessy v. Ferguson? Why or why not? Make sure to include more modern interpretations of
IrinaVladis [17]
I believe that the Plessy v. Ferguson case was a right decision. Before this supreme court case took place, blacks felt that they shouldn't be part of society since the whites were discriminating them. Blacks were treated very poorly as if they were trash. However, this case gave them a chance to prove other wise. Once "separate but equal" became the result of this case, blacks felt that they were given the same rights as whites because they had the same quality things as whites. But at the same time, they were questioning why they were separating from whites. As time passed, blacks and whites became united and were able to use the same public facilities. In modern day, blacks are no longer considered low class, they are treated equally as whites. Also, blacks and whites are able to use the same bathrooms, water fountains, etc. This case has changed history and has influenced many people in the United States.
Hope this helps.
