This book looks at the landmark Supreme Court case in which the Court established the policy of separate but equal public facilities for blacks and whites. The decision formed the basis for widespread segregation in the South for over fifty years, until it was overturned by the Brown v. Board of Education decision which declared that separate education was inherently unequal.
