Product Overview

In 1896, The Supreme Court's Plessy v. Ferguson decision made legal a system of separate but equal racial segregation not overruled until 1954. Using the full text of the Court's opinion, along with a selection of responses to the ruling, Brook Thomas allows students to re-create a context of the complicated debates and conditions in which the decision took place.
