While I don't believe seperate can ever be truly equal, it's obvious the powers that were made a clearly intentional mockery of the "equal" part of "seperate but equal". WI there was even a quarter-hearted attempt to create some semblance of "equal"? Could the Civil Rights movement have been delayed? If so, for how long? Maybe 1970s instead of 1950s?
(In a way this feels more like a post-1900 WI, but since the case involved was 1896, it does technically belong here....)
