Answer:

At the turn of the new century women and African-Americans still lacked equal rights

Explanation:

The doctrine of incorporation, beginning in 1873, led to the gradual extension of fundamental constitutional rights for all citizens, yet women and African Americans did not have equal rights. At the turn of the century, activists like W. E. B. Du Bois created the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People in defense of racial equality and the progress of the black community. The Brown v. Board of Education at the Supreme Court in 1954 was the legal basis for ending racial segregation, but it was not enough for everyone to have equal rights. Rosa Parks led the boycott of the Montgomery buses the following year.

Vesna [10]

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

The astonishing growth of education in the late 1940s ( and thereafter ) seemed yet another sign that the American Dream was well and alive. Historian James Patterson explains how the increase in the number of Americans finishing high school and attending college supports the statement.

Patterson says that spending on public education per student, after the wartime doubled in the United States. From 1944 to 1950, the federal government supported education in public education in colleges and high school. By 1970, 70% of high school students graduated and almost 50% of youngsters became college students. Scholarships in major colleges were granted to the best athletes in the nation, which allowed many people to attend universities.

This information appears in James T. Patterson's book "Great Expectations. The United States, 1945-1974."
