Answer 1

B,

Step-by-step explanation:

The equalization effort in South Carolina was done for the main purpose of Allowing South Carolina to continue to segregate students by meeting the "separate but equal" criteria. They did this by making separate African American schools that where equal in every way to the schools for whites. By doing so they would meet all the requirements set forth by the "separate but equal" doctrine but at the same time continue their segregation practices.
