Before Brown v. Board of Education, public schools could remain segregated based on race as long as the educational opportunities remained equal. Brown v. Board of Education ruled the "separate but equal" idea to be unconstitutional and unequal. This was the beginning of the end of racial segregation in schools. Hope this helped!
Answer:
The Plague of Fear
Explanation:
The McCarthy's Communist hunts were part of the period called the Red Scare this was a time of prejudice and fear among the people of the United States of America saying the Communism was going to sweep the nation taking away their freedom and Democracy. McCarthy's hunts were done to "help make sure that communism is dealt with". McCarthy at the time held great power being in the Senate and held many unconstitutional trails to suspected Communist supporters/ spies for the "Communist Nation"/ Russia. And now we know that these acts we unjustified. Right after 9/11 we now come to repeat these actions acting on fear instead of justice. The Patriot Act, enacted after 9/11 allowed US agencies to search homes and initiate investigations without a warrant similar to the trials and investigations held during the Red Scare. After 9/11 we targeted and blamed Al-Qaeda and therefore initiated the War on Terrorism and invaded Afghanistan, but not to put down the organization that struck the United States instead they attack the Taliban. This war would continue even to this day fighting multiple organizations throughout the Middle East. This also became soon a fight less about 9/11 and more about fossil fuels and even today the US uses this as an excuse to continue and fight this war. So in the end America ends up only hurting itself in these situations violating our rights to protect our rights. The only real difference between these eras is the fact that we didn't use guns and bombs to get our way in the Red Scare that's why it's called a Cold War.
They are bad blacks and should not have owned slaves
Answer: Propaganda
Explanation:
When Abraham Lincoln said these words, he meant to show that the United States could not continue if the North and the South had differing opinions on slavery and that in the end only one view would stand. Seeing as he was a Republican which was a party opposed to slavery, we know what view he supported.
He therefore used the quote above as propaganda to push forward his views on the division in country.
