The separate but equal doctrine was the law of the land in the US from the late 19th century until 1954. In the 1896 case of Plessy v. Ferguson the US Supreme Court ruled that racial segregation was legal as long as the separate facilities for each race were equal. This ruling set a constitutional precedent making segregation legal throughout the country. The ruling was not overturned until 1954 when the Supreme Court ruling in Brown v. Board of Education declared that segregating children in public schools violated the Equal Protection Clause of the 14th Amendment.Plessy v. Ferguson (1896)Brown v. Board of Education (1954)

In the years leading up to Brown v. Board of Education, the Supreme Court had a mixed record on segregation cases. In some instances, it upheld the doctrine of "separate but equal," such as in the 1896 case, Plessy v. Ferguson, which established the "separate but equal" principle. However, there were a few cases, like Sweatt v. Painter (1950) and McLaurin v. Oklahoma State Regents (1950), where the Court began to question the implementation of segregation in higher education. These cases set the stage for the landmark decision in Brown v. Board of Education (1954), which declared segregation in public schools unconstitutional.
