In Plessy vs. Ferguson, the Supreme Court ruled that segregation was allowed in America so long as “seperate but equal” facilities were built for people of different races. What does “seperate but equal mean?” Show you understand this phrase and give an example of how “separate but equal” was carried out in the United States
