The Plessy v Ferguson case upheld the racial segregation laws when it involved public facilites. This resulted in "separate but equal". For instance, blacks and whites had the same quality bathrooms, but they were separated from each other. Blacks had their own bathroom and whites had their own bathroom. This law is used for every public facility that was used by the people.
Hope this helps.
