Why did the Supreme Court decide to overturn Plessy v. Ferguson , as explained in Brown v. Board of Education ?

In Brown v. Board of Education, the Supreme Court concluded that separating students by race in public schools made the schools inherently unequal, even if their buildings or other resources seemed comparable. This contradicted the “separate but equal” principle from Plessy v. Ferguson, so the Court rejected that principle in public education. The correct choice is “Separate is inherently unequal.”
