What happened to segregation laws after the case of Plessy v. Ferguson? Segregation still existed, but only in very small towns with no access to court systems.

Important politicians like Ferguson, once in favor of segregation, began to denounce it.
Plessy v. Ferguson began the breakdown of segregation as it was defined at that time.
Segregation continued, and citizens experienced many more years of legal segregation.

The correct answer is: Segregation continued, and citizens experienced many more years of legal segregation.

Although, to be frank, segregation did more than continue. It thrived.

After Plessy, states and counties were given carte blanche to loosely define what "separate but equal" meant.
