Justice Harlan say that segregation cannot be justified upon any legal grounds because he believe, if harmsarise from the mixing of the two races on public highways built for the welfare of all, they will be exponentially fewer than those which will certainly emerge from state laws restricting the enjoyment of civil rights on the basis of race

Justice Harlan concluded his dissent in Plessy v. Ferguson, (1896), with the following line:"For the reason stated, I am constrained to withhold my assent from the opinion and judgment of the majority."He meant that he could not agree with majority opinionor vote on the case (his was the lone dissent) for the reasons stated in his dissenting opinion.
The 1896 case Plessy v. Ferguson upheld the constitutionality of racial segregation in public accommodations under the "separate-but-equal" doctrine. The Supreme Court voted 7-1 (with one abstention). Justice John M. Harlan cast the dissenting vote.The doctrine was overturned 58 years later by the 1954 Supreme Court decision Brown v. Board of Education.

Justice Harlan interpreted the 14th Amendment, particularly the Equal Protection Clause, as providing equal rights and protections to all individuals, regardless of race. He believed that the Amendment's language of "equal protection of the laws" required the government to treat all citizens equally under the law, and he strongly opposed any form of segregation or discrimination based on race. Justice Harlan's interpretation was influential in several important civil rights cases, including Plessy v. Ferguson and the Civil Rights Cases.
Justice John Marshall Harlan II (1955-1971) was the grandson of Justice John Marshall Harlan (1877-1911). Interestingly, both men were deliberately named after the great Chief Justice John Marshall (1801-1835).
The shot of a town at the end of the credits is actually Harlan, Kentucky. It's a small city of less about 1730 people and is the seat of Harlan County.On the series, most of the characters in Harlan county live in the rural parts of Harlan and not within the city limits.
Justice Harlan believed that the true meaning behind the legislation enacted in Louisiana was to enforce racial segregation by requiring separate railway cars for black and white passengers. I agree with Justice Harlan's interpretation because the legislation was a clear attempt to institutionalize racial discrimination and maintain white supremacy in the South.
