The correct option is:

The government cannot legislate equality.

Booker T. Washington understood that the government can´t legislate equality, as in a merit-based society hard work and patience are the proper tools to accomplish racial equality. Washington was a former slave who embodied self-help in the years following reconstruction. He started the Tuskegee Institute in 1881, to help former slaves and poor black people of the time.

lesantik [10]

Answer:

The 1925 Tennessee trial in which a public schoolteacher faced charges of violating the state's law prohibiting the teaching of Charles Darwin's theory of evolution was called the Scopes Monkey Trial.

Explanation:

The Scopes Trial was a court case where the teacher John Scopes was prosecuted in the Tennessee Criminal Court on July 21, 1925 for teaching developmental doctrine, which was contrary to Tennessee's then-current legislation. He was sentenced to $ 100 in fines and after that, the theory came to play a very small role in American schools in favor of the Bible's creation story. When the US-Soviet space race began in 1957, an increasing emphasis was placed on natural science subjects in the United States.

This trial was a more temporary accentuation of the long-standing tension between the so-called fundamentalists, who asserted the full authority of the Bible and more moderate directions. It was also one of the fundamentalists' leaders, W. J. Bryan, who charged Scopes, who, despite a convincing defense performed in his favor, was convicted of a violation of law. In January 1927, the Tennessee Supreme Court affirmed the laws in question, but annulled the court decision declaring Scope's guilty.
