Jim Crow laws were racial segregation laws that were applied to blacks until they were overruled by the Civil Rights Act of 1964. Until that time, blacks faced discriminatory practices in all parts of public life including jobs, housing, use of public transport, and education. In addition, blacks faced discrimination in the armed forces until President Harry Truman issued an executive order in 1948 that outlawed discrimination in the military.

Answer:

D). So, our national policy in foreign affairs has been based on a decent respect for the rights and dignity of all nations, large and small. And the justice of morality must and will win in the end.

Step-by-step explanation:

The historical background offered here focuses on the laws enforced by Jim Crow to racially segregate received a major halt after the enactment of Civil Rights in 1964. Thus, the claim that seems to be inconsistent with US policy in this excerpt from Franklin D. Roosevelt's "Four Freedoms" speech in 1941, when he delivered this speech is option D. It emphasizes on providing respect to the rights and dignity of all the nations, be it large and small where the justice of morality would win in the end, that seems contrary. Hence, the correct answer is option D.
