Which of the following did the Supreme court rule in Plessy v. Ferguson?

Answer 1

In the case of Plessy v. Ferguson, decided in 1896, the Supreme Court ruled that racial segregation laws for public facilities were constitutional under the "separate but equal" doctrine. The court held that as long as the separate facilities for the races were equal, segregation did not violate the Equal Protection Clause of the Fourteenth Amendment. This decision upheld state laws enforcing segregation and provided a legal justification for the Jim Crow laws that enforced racial segregation in the South.
