Question 7 • AZ-US/AZ History B (SS302)

Which opinion in Brown v. Board of Education does this passage describe?

Answer
A
“Separate but equal” schools tend to be overcrowded.
B
White students would suffer if public schools were desegregated.
C
Separating students based on race is not perfect, but it is the best option.
D
Sending African American students to separate schools is harmful to them.

Explanation

In Brown v. Board of Education, the Supreme Court explained that separating children in public schools because of race can make African American children feel inferior and harm their educational and personal development. This supports the opinion that sending African American students to separate schools is harmful to them. The Court rejected segregation rather than arguing that it was the best available option.
