Answer 1

## Step 1The problem is asking us to identify the reason that made the idea of "separate but equal" constitutional. This concept is related to the legal principle of racial segregation in the United States, which was upheld by the Supreme Court in the case of Plessy v. Ferguson in 1896.## Step 2The Supreme Court's decision in Plessy v. Ferguson was based on the interpretation of the 14th Amendment, which guarantees equal protection under the law. The Court held that as long as the separate facilities provided for each race were equal, segregation did not violate the 14th Amendment.## Step 3The Court's reasoning was that separate spaces could be of the same quality, and therefore, a separation did not violate the equal protection requirements of the 14th Amendment. This is the basis for the "separate but equal" doctrine.
