[We consider the underlying fallacy of the plaintiff's argument to consist in the assumption that the enforced
separation of the two races stamps the colored race with a
badge of inferiority. If this be so, it is not by reason of
anything found in the act,
but solely because the colored
race chooses to put that construction upon it. ... The
argument also assumes that social prejudices may be
overcome by legislation, and that equal rights cannot be
secured to the negro except by an enforced commingling
of the two races. We cannot accept this proposition.
