Explanation:

Plessy v. Ferguson was a milestone 1896 U.S. Preeminent Court decision that maintained the legality of racial isolation under the "separate but equal" principle. The case originated from a 1892 episode in which African-American train traveler Homer Plessy wouldn't sit in a vehicle for blacks.

Dismissing Plessy's contention that his protected rights were violated, the Supreme Court decided that a law that "implies merely a legal distinction" among whites and blacks was not illegal. Thus, prohibitive Jim Crow enactment and separate open lodging dependent on race ended up as commonplace.

government is strong when they have the ability to persuade those they govern to believe government has enough power to force them or should be forcing them to do government’s will.

when enough of the citizenry do not believe government can force them or should force them to do its bidding, government has lost or will lose its strength and power to coerce.

when enough of the citizenry do believe government can force or should force them to do its bidding, they become passive at the least or actively pro-government and repeat government’s own rhetoric to pass on what they have been persuaded by government’s propaganda.

a true majority isn’t always needed to govern or to stop government. many times all that is needed is a strong minority. if a determined 30% of the population rises up against government in a concerted effort to bring it down, this size minority usually will succeed as long as those actively opposing the minority are less in force than the minority. so if 41% of the population sits at home watching tv rooting for one side or the other, they don’t matter. it’s the active parties who make a difference.
