The answer is that all public school districts must end segregation. Nixon worked on ending segregation in public schools. Despite some opposition, Nixon through his aides worked things since Federal aid was on hand. Through this effort less than 10% of Black children were attending segregation schools as more and more African Americans were now attending the same schools as Whites.

Answer: All public school districts must end segregation.

Step-by-step explanation:

School desegregation was one of the gravest issues during Nixon’s first administration. Notwithstanding the unanimous ruling in Brown v. Board of Education Topeka (1954) and the approval of the 1964 Civil Rights Bill, most schools were still segregated in the South.

In Alexander v. Holmes County (1969) the Supreme Court decided to end dual school systems to establish unitary schools.
