Answer 2

## Step 1The problem is asking us to identify the ruling established by the Plessy v. Ferguson case in 1896. This is a question of historical fact, specifically related to the history of the United States.## Step 2The Plessy v. Ferguson case is a landmark decision by the United States Supreme Court. This case is significant because it upheld the constitutionality of racial segregation under the "separate but equal" doctrine.## Step 3The "separate but equal" doctrine stated that as long as facilities provided for different races were equal, they could be separate. This doctrine was used to justify segregation in public facilities such as schools, transportation, and restrooms.## Step 4The Plessy v. Ferguson case did not establish the right of African Americans to vote, the right of all Americans to equal protection under the law, or the right of all Americans to peaceful protest. These rights were established through other legal and social movements.
