- this is a true statement.

This segregation also included Asians and Mexicans.

how about this statement:

Slavery was an established institution until the Twelfth Amendment was ratified on December 18, 1865. ???

It's false because it was the Thirteenth Amendment, not the Twelfth. The Twelfth Amendment was ratified in 1804 and it concerned the election of the President and Vice-President
