There wasn't a direct repeal of Plessy v. Ferguson (1896), but the precedent was effectively overturned by the Supreme Court's decision in Brown v. Board of Education in 1954. In Brown, the Court declared that racial segregation in public schools was unconstitutional, rejecting the "separate but equal" doctrine established in Plessy. This landmark ruling paved the way for the Civil Rights Movement and subsequent legal challenges to segregation.
