The 1896 Supreme Court case which resulted in the "separate but equal" doctrine was Plessy v. Ferguson. Plessy v Ferguson allowed state-sponsored segregation in public facilities, such as bathrooms, public school and transportation. Even when this legislation was scrapped, there were groups in the South still fighting for it to be upheld.
