Question

Question 1-16 We conclude that, in the field of public education, the doctrine of "separate but equal" has no place. Separate educational facilities are inherently unequal. Therefore, we hold that the plaintiffs are deprived of the equal protection of the laws guaranteed by the Fourteenth Amendment. -Chief Justice Earl Warren Brown v. Board of Education, May 17,1954 Which previous Supreme Court decision had protected the practice described in the excerpt? Sweatt v. Paketer Hernandez v. Texas Plessy v. Ferguson Wisconsin v. Yoder

Answer 1

The previous Supreme Court decision that had protected the practice described in the excerpt is Plessy v. Ferguson. In this 1896 case, the Supreme Court upheld the constitutionality of racial segregation under the "separate but equal" doctrine. This decision was later overturned by Brown v. Board of Education in 1954, which concluded that separate educational facilities are inherently unequal and violate the Equal Protection Clause of the Fourteenth Amendment.
