Just as an educational aside, I think many people are mistaken about what the “separate but equal” decision in Plessy v. Ferguson actually was. I always used to think the decision said that it’s okay for restaurants and other buildings to provide separate restrooms and facilities for different ethnicities, but it was actually more than that. The decision said that it’s okay for state government to require all business to provide separate facilities. I think it’s a bad thing to do either way, for the record. Forgive me for hijacking your comment to throw in a little factoid.
