Question

Read the excerpt from a supporting opinion of the Supreme Court’s ruling in Plessy v. Ferguson.

If the civil and political rights of both races be equal, one cannot be inferior to the other civilly or politically. If one race be inferior to the other socially, the Constitution of the United States cannot put them upon the same plane.

How does this relate to the premises of Brown v. Board of Education?

A. The Brown case questions whether separate schools based on race inherently render one inferior to the other.

B. The Brown case questions whether educators treat students differently based on their race.

C. The Brown case addresses whether separate entrances and water fountains suggest that one race is inferior to another.

D. The Brown case addresses whether separate schools hinder the political and intellectual potential of certain citizens.

Step-by-step explanation:

I don't know i might be wrong

Answer 2

The correct answer should be A. The Brown case questions whether separate schools based on race inherently render one inferior to the other.

In the Brown case, it was established that it is unconstitutional to open segregated public schools for African-Americans and deny them access to other public schools. This is related to the previous case because the previous case established that the separate but equal doctrine was constitutional.
