3
for nearly 50 years since \plessy v. ferguson\ (1896) declared \separate but equal\ constitutional, african american children attended different schools from white children.

Explanation:

First, the foundational legal precedent Plessy v. Ferguson established the "separate but equal" doctrine, enabling segregated schools. This precedent directly led to Linda Brown being forced to attend a segregated, farther school instead of a closer white school. Finally, this unfair treatment prompted Linda's father to sue the local school board, which initiated the Brown v. Board of Education case.
