Question 15 • RMA FL-2100310-United States History Semester 2

Which statement about Earl Warren’s role in the Brown decision is true?

Answer
A
He found that the segregation of public schools harmed students.
B
He was unable to persuade some of his colleagues to his argument.
C
He wrote the court’s opinion in the case.
D
He heard a lower court argument in the case.

Explanation

In Brown v. Board of Education, the Supreme Court concluded that separating students by race in public schools harmed children and was inherently unequal. Chief Justice Earl Warren wrote the Court’s opinion and worked to secure a unanimous decision, so he did persuade his colleagues rather than fail to persuade them. He did not hear a lower-court argument in the case.
