商品簡介
The Man Who Became a Legal Disaster.
New Orleans, 1892. When Homer Plessy, a prosperous Creole of color, boarded a "whites-only" train car, it was not an accident-it was a meticulously planned act of defiance against a rapidly encroaching Jim Crow South.
Plessy and his fellow activists intended to strike a fatal blow against racial discrimination. Instead, they handed the U.S. Supreme Court the tool it needed to enact America's darkest legal catastrophe: the 1896 Plessy v. Ferguson ruling that established the doctrine of "separate but equal."
This is the gripping, forgotten story of the man whose name became synonymous with judicial failure. It explores the vibrant, radical Creole community he came from, the tactics of their extraordinary legal team, and the painful half-century of segregation that followed.
Discover the complex life of Homer Plessy, the shoemaker and citizen who changed the course of American history by fighting for the right to ride. Approx.158 pages, 30300 word count
