This view of the future comes from John Wilkins (1614–1672), an English clergyman, naturalist, and writer, who helped
found the Royal Society for Natural Knowledge in England:
Yet I do seriously and on good grounds affirm it possible to make a flying chariot in which a man may sit and give such
a motion unto it as shall convey him through the air. And this perhaps might be made large enough to carry diverse
men at the same time, together with food for their viaticum and commodities for traffic. It is not the bigness of
anything in this kind that can hinder its motion, if the motive faculty be answerable thereunto. We see a great ship
swims as well as a small cork, and an eagle flies in the air as well as a little gnat.

Which best explains why the supreme court’s decision in plessy v. ferguson was unconstitutional? the supreme court’s ruling allowed states to deny equal protection to any person within its jurisdiction. since the 14th amendment did not make concessions for people born outside the us, the supreme court’s decision could not be applied. the supreme court’s decision gave individual states the freedom to make their own laws in relation to non-whites. since segregation laws did not provide equal protections or liberties to non-whites, the ruling was not consistent with the 14th amendment.
