Plessey vs Ferguson was half black and half white, he was free so he thought he could sit on a train cart with whites and the judge said that he can't seperate and unequal treatments for whites and blacks, Brooklyn Bridge buildin of the bridge was stop on January 3rd and years later it got finished, jefferson couldn't come because he was paralyzed from a disease that was from dust particles there was a theory that the bridge was gonna collapse and 27 people died from it, Jim Crow Laws were supposed to give black people more rights and police wouldn't help them out for anything like doctor's showing up late and police didn't look for people who stole the black people's items
