b. spread of racially segregated public facilities

Explanation:

The 1896 landmark judicial decision Plessy v. Ferguson led to increased segregation and further political and social disavantage of African Americans in the South. The US Supreme Court sentence stated that the 14th Amendment applied only to political and civil rights, not to social rights. The case originated because a colored man of mixed race, Homer Plessy, had bought a train ticket to go from New Orleans to Covington and sat in a car only for whites. He refused to leave when he was asked to by the conductor, and he was arrested and jailed. The sentence stated that separate but equal facilities were not unconstitutional.
