Question

Which is an example of white resistance to desegregation? (808-809) Question 9 options:

A)boycotting black-owned hotels and restaurants
B)closing public schools and providing private school vouchers to white parents
C)proposing a Constitutional amendment to legalize segregation

Answer 1

The correct answer is B)closing public schools and providing private school vouchers to white parents

Basically, public schools are funded by taxes so they are open for all people. Some states who wanted to keep segregating closed many of them down on account of lack of funds and then they provided white people with vouchers for private schools. Since private schools are private ownership, they can choose who to enroll and who not to.
