According to the ruling in the Presley V Ferguson case why was segregation acceptable
1 answer
In the Presley v. Ferguson case, the court ruled that segregation was acceptable because they believed that "separate but equal" facilities for African Americans and white Americans were constitutional. This ruling was based on the idea that even though the facilities were separate, they were still equal in quality and did not violate the rights of African Americans. This ruling upheld the principle of segregation and allowed discriminatory practices to continue in public spaces.
