JAlbel MR. JUSTICE BROWN, after stating the case, delivered the opinion of the court.
This case turns upon the constitutionality of an act of the General Assembly of the State of Louisiana, passed in
1890, providing for separate railway carriages for the white and colored races. Acts 1890, No. 111, p. 152.
The first section of the statute enacts
"that all railway companies carrying passengers in their coaches in this State shall provide equal but separate
accommodations for the white and colored races by providing two or more passenger coaches for each
passenger train, or by dividing the passenger coaches by a partition so as to secure separate accommodations:
Provided, That this section shall not be construed to apply to street railroads. No person or persons, shall be
admitted to occupy seats in coaches other than the ones assigned to them on account of the race they belong
to."
The Supreme Court's ruling in Plessy v. Ferguson was problematic because
O the court was not able to overturn the Louisiana state law that required passengers be separated by race.
the court did not have any African American justices among its members.
O it was unclear if Plessy (who was of mixed race) broke the law by sitting in the whites-only coach.
O it was based on the belief that segregation was permissible as long as the facilities were equal.
