Justice Harlan believed that the true meaning behind the legislation enacted in Louisiana was to enforce racial segregation by requiring separate railway cars for black and white passengers. I agree with Justice Harlan's interpretation because the legislation was a clear attempt to institutionalize racial discrimination and maintain white supremacy in the South.
Justice John Marshall Harlan I
The great dissenter is John Marshall Harlan of the Supreme Court. He was a lawyer and a judge for much of his life and died in 1911.
Justice John Marshall Harlan II was the grandson of Justice John Marshall Harlan, the sole dissenter in Plessy v. Ferguson,(1896), the decision that declared "separate but equal" public accommodations was constitutional. Brown v. Board of Education, (1954) overturned that decision; however, John Marshall Harlan II wasn't one of the justices involved in the first Brown decision. Harlan succeeded Justice Robert H. Jackson, joining the bench in March 1955. He voted with the majority in Brown v. Board of Education II, (1955), the case in which the Court ordered desegregation to take place with "all deliberate speed."Justices for Brown v.

Supreme Court Justice John Marshall Harlan
The justices' ow sense of restraint
Justice Harlan interpreted the 14th Amendment, particularly the Equal Protection Clause, as providing equal rights and protections to all individuals, regardless of race. He believed that the Amendment's language of "equal protection of the laws" required the government to treat all citizens equally under the law, and he strongly opposed any form of segregation or discrimination based on race. Justice Harlan's interpretation was influential in several important civil rights cases, including Plessy v. Ferguson and the Civil Rights Cases.
Justice Harlan concluded his dissent in Plessy v. Ferguson, (1896), with the following line:"For the reason stated, I am constrained to withhold my assent from the opinion and judgment of the majority."He meant that he could not agree with majority opinionor vote on the case (his was the lone dissent) for the reasons stated in his dissenting opinion.
