'Plessy v. Ferguson'

Explicación

## Step 1The problem is asking us to identify the Supreme Court decision that had previously protected the practice described in the excerpt. The excerpt is from the Brown v. Board of Education case, which declared that separate educational facilities are inherently unequal, thus overturning the "separate but equal" doctrine.## Step 2The "separate but equal" doctrine was established by the Supreme Court in the Plessy v. Ferguson case. This doctrine stated that as long as the separate facilities for the separate races were equal, segregation did not violate the Fourteenth Amendment of the U.S. Constitution.## Step 3The Brown v. Board of Education case overturned the Plessy v. Ferguson decision, declaring that separate educational facilities are inherently unequal.
