This passage comes from a white coffee planter named P. J. Laborie. He wrote this book to share his expertise with other Britons

about the cultivation of coffee in Jamaica. In order to make the best of the powers of the enslaved African, and to keep him helpless, punishment is unfortunately sometimes necessary. Such also is the case with soldiers, with sailors, and with all servile classes of men. —P. J. Laborie: The Coffee Planter of Saint Domingo, 1798 Why would a historian find this to be a biased source of information? The author was not a slaveholder, but he gives his opinion about slavery. The author employs many different types of people. The passage includes untrue generalizations about groups of people. The author is commenting on other professions, not just coffee planting.

Which 1896 supreme court decision approved segregation of blacks as long as seperate but egual facilities were allowed
abruzzese [7]

The correct answer is: "Plessy v. Ferguson"

Plessy vs Ferguson was a landmark decision enacted by the US Supreme Court in 1896, which legimitized the existence of segregated public education facilities as long as these were equal in quality. It actually introduced the principle of "separate but equal".

In the Plessy v. Ferguson the justices had considered that, as long as equal quality was provided, segregation was not violating the Equal Protection Clause included in the 14th Amendment to the US Constitution. Therefore, segregation was not contrary to the US Constitution and therefore legitime. Fortunately, the Supreme Court in 1954, in  the case of Brown v. Board of Education understood it differently, and dismantled segregation forever.
