Answer:
Segregated facilities were allowed to exist in states that chose to have them.
Explanation:
Following the decision in Plessy v. Ferguson (1896) segregated facilities were allowed to exist in states that chose to have them. It upheld the "separate but equal" doctrine that would remain in effect for the next half-century. Although the 15th Amendment stated that the right to vote would "not be denied or abridged by the United States or by any State on account of race, color, or previous condition of servitude," the Plessy case- dealing with segregation of facilities- was not directly related to the issue of voting.
The city name that Kentucky, Indiana, New Hampshire, Maryland, Connecticut and Georgia have in common is Bethlehem.
There are many cities called Bethlehem in the United States that share their name with that of the birthplace of Jesus. Besides the states already mentioned, there are little towns also called Bethlehem in the states of New York, North Carolina, Arkansas and West Virginia.
