The Long Night continues: the Supreme Court, of the corporate United states, hands down Plessy v. Ferguson: via the fraudulent 14th amendment, inventing the doctrine of “Separate But Equal.”  Businesses must segregate their customers by race—even if either the owners, or the patrons, do not wish to do so.  “If the two races are to meet upon terms of social equality, it must be the result of natural affinities, a mutual appreciation of each other’s merits and a voluntary consent of individuals. … “

       NOTE: The East Louisiana Railroad supported Homer Plessy’s stand against the state’s Separate Car Act, as it required railroads to purchase, maintain and haul more cars to transport fewer passengers.
