On June 7th 1892
Plessy versus Ferguson was a Supreme Court case in the 80s. Homer argued on separated but equal restrooms etc. like that were not. The top priority for this was the separate car act passed in the early 1890, making Caucasians and African Americans sit separate on buses. With this new law whites were concerned and fought against it, but born free was an African American thing.
Caucasians got sat only on railway cars and when he sat down he immediately got arrested and was put on trial however he fought on how the law was unfair and denied his fourteenth amendment. He got denied and got a fine up to twenty-five dollars. He plead to the Supreme Courts and a decision was made and he was denied once again to a seven to one ratio.
