Question

In Plessy v. Ferguson (1896), the Supreme Court: a. supported the right of workers to join unions. b. supported the right of African-Americans to vote. c. ruled that "separate but equal" accommodations were constitutional. d. supported the right of women to vote. e. ruled that "separate but equal" accommodations were unconstitutional.

Answer 1

C. Ruled that "separate but equal" accommodations were constitutional.

Step-by-step explanation:

The Plessy v. Ferguson Supreme Court decision determined that segregation was acceptable, as long as they are equal. But this led to growing segregation and considerably worse accommodations for black Americans, resulting in the explosion of the Civil Rights Movement in the 1950s.
