Explanation:B) Americans were divided on the issue of fighting in vietnam...
Reason: While the louder speaking majority wanted peace (as they were tired of war), there was still a faction of people who believe it is best to continue to fight. President Nixon believed that these people were the majority, hence the name 'silent majority'. However, the peace group was able to win, with the withdrawal of US troops and the eventual takeover of South Vietnam by communist troops.
Main Idea and Details What did the Supreme Court mean by "seperate but equal?" Why did many people feel this idea was faulty?
Answer: The term "separate but equal" was initiated too help garner Southern support. The Supreme Court termed it so that the South can still segregate many of the public areas, as long as 'they have equal chances and are relatively the same.' However, this idea was faulty, because many believed that if it was separate, that it will still 'not be equal', as the people do not feel that they are treated the same. As long as they are separate and not equal, 'the people will not feel that it is the same'.
