"There was with General Washington, during most of the summer, a Seneca chief, called The Great Tree, who, on leaving the head-q

uarters of the Commander-in-chief, professed the strongest friendship for the American cause, and his first object, after his return to his own people, was to inspire them with his own friendly sentiments. While passing through the Oneida nation on his way home, he professed the strongest confidence in his ability to keep his own tribe bound in the chain of friendship, and pledged himself, in the event of his failure, to come down with his friends and adherents and join the Oneidas. Early in October [1778], Mr. Dean, the Indian interpreter and agent in the Oneida territory, . . .had despatched messengers to the Seneca country, who had returned with unfavorable intelligence. It was stated, that on his arrival in his own country, The Great Tree found his tribe all in arms. The warriors had been collected from the remotest of their lodges, and were then thronging the two principal towns, Kanadaseago and Jennesee. Having heard that the Americans were preparing an expedition against their country, they had flown to arms; and The Great Tree was himself determined to chastise the enemy who should dare to penetrate his country. The Oneida messengers were farther told that all the Indians west of their own tribe, including, of course, the Onondagas, together with the Indian settlements on the Susquehanna and its branches, were to join them. They were to rendezvous somewhere on the Tioga, and make a descent either upon the Pennsylvania or New Jersey frontier."

Read the excerpt from the US Supreme court case Plessy v. Ferguson (1896).
Nesterboy [21]

The Supreme Court's decision in Plessy v. Ferguson was unconstitutional because since segregation laws did not provide equal protections or liberties to non-whites, the ruling was not consistent with the 14th Amendment.

In Plessy v. Ferguson's case in 1896, America's Supreme Court established that as long as there was equality, racially separated facilities were not unconstitutional. According to the Court, segregation did not discriminate.

But actually, the separate facilities granted to African Americans were infrequently equal. Normally they were far from being equal, or were completely inexistent.

Distribution of education budget in Florida, for example, was extremely different depending on the race: whereas white people counted on a budget  of over 70 million dolars for their schools, libraries, and more, black people counted on a budget of less than 5 million. They teached and learned in churchs, huts, and shelters without bathrooms, water supply, desks or chalkboards.

This principle of "separate but equal" was only employed to reaffirm white majority supremacy over black minority, and was eventually abandoned in 1954.
