**Correct Answer: H Plessy v. Ferguson**The Supreme Court decision in *Plessy v. Ferguson* (1896) upheld the constitutionality of racial segregation under the "separate but equal" doctrine. This precedent was overturned by *Brown v. Board of Education* (1954), which declared that separate educational facilities are inherently unequal and violate the Fourteenth Amendment.
