How Did Constitutional Interpretation Affect Plessy V. Ferguson? - The Right Politics

How Did Constitutional Interpretation Affect Plessy V. Ferguson? In this informative video, we’ll discuss the landmark Supreme Court case of Plessy v. Ferguson and how constitutional interpretation played a key role in its outcome. We’ll examine the Fourteenth Amendment, which was ratified in 1868 to ensure equal protection under the law for all citizens. The 1896 ruling by the Supreme Court allowed for "separate but equal" facilities, effectively endorsing racial segregation in the United States.

We’ll explore the conservative viewpoint regarding limited government intervention and the original intent of the Constitution, as well as the tension between originalism and shifting social norms during that era. This case not only highlights the principle of federalism but also the implications of judicial decisions on state laws.

As we navigate through this historical context, we’ll connect the dots to the eventual overturning of Plessy v. Ferguson by Brown v. Board of Education in 1954, which marked a significant change in how the Fourteenth Amendment was interpreted. Join us as we unpack these critical themes and their influence on civil rights in America.
