The Supreme Court cases Plessy v Ferguson and Brown v Board of Education are related as they both address the issue of racial segregation in the United States. Plessy v Ferguson (1896) upheld the constitutionality of "separate but equal" facilities for different races, perpetuating racial segregation. Brown v Board of Education (1954) overturned the previous ruling, declaring that racial segregation in public schools is unconstitutional. These cases have had a profound impact on US citizens by reshaping the legal framework and providing momentum for the civil rights movement, fostering desegregation and promoting equality among races in American society.
