Answer: in 1896, segregation was viewed as perfectly constitutional and unproblematic as whites wished to be separate from African Americans. Yet during the period of time between 1896 and 1954 the evils of segregation where exposed as the separate accommodations for minorities provided by the white governments in southern states under Jim Crow we’re almost never equal in quality to the ones reserved for whites which is why the Supreme Court overturned plessy by ruling in Brown V Board that everyone regardless of race deserved equal protection under the law according to the 14th amendment
Explanation:
The 8th amendment because it can’t be the second because that’s right to bear arms. it can’t be the fifth because that’s ‘i plead the fifth’ which basically means you don’t have to talk if you don’t want to. nobody can force you to talk. it can’t be the third because it talks about how soldiers can’t stay in someone’s house during war and whatnot. so it’s the 8th. hope this helps
