Plessy vs. Ferguson was a Supreme Court case that took place in 1896. It all started when Homer Plessy, a man who is 1/8th African American, was asked to move from his seat in the all white section of a train car. Plessy refused to move since he had bought a seat in this section. He was promptly arrested for his refusal to abide by this law.
Homer Plessy would go on to change this law saying that it was unconstitutional. His lawyer argued that this was a violation of his 14th amendment rights. However, the Supreme Court ruled against Plessy. The majority opinion from the Supreme Court stated that this did not violate the 14th amendment as long as the facilities for blacks and whites were "separate but equal."
This ruling drastically changed American society, as other businesses and facilities became segregated by race. These laws would last for almost half a century in the United States.

This statement by James Madison argues that men are not perfect, and that human nature can be flawed. He believes government exists in order to control and limit the impact of these flaws.
One example is the separation of powers. The principle of the separation of powers states that power must be divided among different branches of government. The branches limit and control each other, and safeguard against the abuse of a tyrant. If people were not corrupted by power, or did not have a tendency to abuse power for their own gain, then the separation of powers would not be necessary. However, because human nature is flawed, these measures are necessary in government.
