Plessy v. Ferguson yielded the doctrine of "separate but equal," legally protecting segregation. Dred Scott v. Sandford(1857) established that people of African descent did not have the right to sue in federal court because they were not U.S. citizens. It was effectively nullified by the ratification of the Fourteenth Amendment, which established that people of African descent who were born in the United States or completed naturalization requirements were U.S. citizens. Brown v. Board of Education nullified Plessy v. Ferguson.
