Question 14 • RMA FL-2100310-United States History Semester 2
Murray v. Pearson (1936) challenged the University of Maryland’s refusal to admit Donald Gaines Murray to its law school because he was African American. The Maryland Court of Appeals ruled that the university had to admit him, since it could not provide an equal law-school education for Black students elsewhere in the state. Henderson v. United States, Guinn v. United States, and Plessy v. Ferguson dealt with different civil-rights issues.
