The correct answer is: "It was allowed as long as the facilities provided to both races were equal".

Plessy v. Ferguson is a case from 1896 which, back then, let to the enactment of a landmark decision by the US Supreme Court .

The decision allowed the proliferation of segregated public facilities under the belief that, if facilities were equal in quality, such system was not violating the Equal Protection Clause that guaranteed equality of rights for all US citizens. Such clause had been included in the 14th Amendment to the US Consitution, issued in 1868 during the Reconstruction Era.

<u>Through this decision the US Supreme Court accepted the constitutionality of the denominated "separate but equal" lemma and, as a consquence, of segregation. </u>

Which best describes the main action called for by the Declaration of Independence
choli [55]

The correct answer is to give the United States the power of sell government

The movement for the Independence of the United States occurred at the turn of the 1770s to the 1780s and sparked a war whose end, in 1783, sealed the autonomy of the Thirteen Colonies. The Declaration of Independence was drafted and signed on July 4, 1776. One of the elements that had great weight in the acceleration of independence was the Seven Years' War (1756-1763), that is, the war fought in North America between Englishmen and French for land ownership.

The Seven Years' War, won by the English with broad support from the colonists who already lived there, resulted in the annexation of lands previously belonging to the French. The settlers who were already on the new continent thought that they could benefit from such lands as a spoil of war, but the English crown had other plans: to assign the new lands to new settlers who would come from England to occupy them.
