b. Plessy v. Ferguson

Plessy v. Ferguson (1896) was a landmark decision of the United States Supreme Court. The decision held that racial segregation laws in public facilities were constitutional as long as those facilities were equal in quality. Although it did not use the phrase, the doctrine came to be known as "separate but equal." The decision is regarded as one of the worst ones in history, and it is now considered de facto overruled.
