The NAACP's main strategy to overturn Plessy v. Ferguson focused on legal challenges and the strategic use of the court system to highlight the injustices of segregation. They carefully selected cases that would bring attention to the inequalities in public education and civil rights, culminating in the landmark Brown v. Board of Education case in 1954. By demonstrating that segregated schools were inherently unequal, the NAACP aimed to dismantle the legal foundations of Jim Crow laws and promote civil rights for African Americans. This approach combined legal advocacy with grassroots mobilization to build public support for desegregation.
