Answer:

The correct answer is D. Noah Webster's contributions resulted from his interest in politics and his concern for language.

Explanation:

Webster was a pioneering lexicographer, and his books on grammar and spelling, such as the A Grammatical Institute of the English Language (1783–1785) and the American Dictionary of the English Language (1828), standardized American English. The latter dictionary is still published in new, extended editions, and is the major standard dictionary in the United States. Among the changes he introduced in American English was to change, -RE to -ER in words such as theater, to abolish one L in words like traveling and the U in words like color.

Answer: Yes the US should have gone to war. There are two sides to the topic, Yes and No. Yes because if we did not go to war with mexico we would not own all the present 50 states. No because war is expensive.

The long-term significance of Brown v. Board of Education is that it.

Alenkasestr [34]

Answer:

The correct answer is:

D. overturned the Plessy v. Ferguson ruling accepting segregated facilities.

Explanation:

What is the Brown v. Board of Education case about (1954)?

The US Supreme Court decided that racial segregation in schools was unconstitutional (forbidden by the law), because it violated the 14th Amendment and the Equal Protection Clause it contains. Until then, children from racial minorities had to go to schools that were separate from the schools where white children went.

In this context, 13 parents from Topeka, Kansas, sued the Topeka Board of Education for their 20 children who were segregated in schools on racial grounds. The case went up to the Supreme Court and they won.

What is the Plessy v. Ferguson case about (1896)?

In this case with similar facts, the US Supreme Court had ruled that racial segregation in schools that had equal facilities, accommodations and services was legal ("separate but equal"), a decision which supported racist views and a defeat for the the Civil Rights Movement.

However, Brown v. Board of Education overturned the Plessy v. Ferguson ruling and it paved the way for ending racial segregation and justice for the racial minorities, especially in school.
