Chief Justice Earl Warren stated, “Separate educational facilities are inherently unequal.” What did the use of “inherently” imply about segregation?

“Inherently” means by its essential nature or very definition. Warren’s statement therefore means that separating students into different educational facilities makes those facilities unequal, regardless of whether they seem to have equal resources. The correct choice is C, “By its very definition, it cannot be equal.”
