Answer:

Linda Brown

Explanation:

In 1951, Oliver Brown sued the Board of Education of Topeka because his daughter Linda Brown was refused entry into Topeka all white school which was closer to their house, thus safer and more equipped. He sought for the separate but equal law instituted in 1896 to be made unconstitutional and for his daughter to be allowed to go to an all white school. In 1954, in a landmark verdict, the United States Supreme Court declared the separate but equal law unconstitutional as it contravenes the equal protection clause of the 14th amendment.

Do you think Reagan's Strategic Defense Initiative was a good or bad idea?
spayn [35]

Answer:

Reagan's Strategic Defense Initiative was a good idea; everything Reagan did was good for our country.

Explanation:During the 1980s, President Ronald Reagan initiated the Strategic Defense Initiative (SDI), an anti-ballistic missile program (ABMP) that was designed to shoot down nuclear missiles in space. Otherwise known as “Star Wars,” SDI sought to create a space-based shield that would render nuclear missiles obsolete.

But something people do not talk about is how he was interested in  the ABMP dating back to 1967 when as governor of California,  he paid a visit to physicis Edward Tellert the Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory. Reagan reportedly was very taken by Teller’s briefing on directed-energy weapons (DEWs), such as lasers and microwaves. Teller argued that DEWs could potentially defend against a nuclear attack, characterizing them as the “third generation of nuclear weapons” after fission and thermonuclear weapons, respectively (Rhodes 179). According to George Shultz, the Secretary of State during Reagan’s presidency, the meeting with Teller was “the first gleam in Ronald Reagan’s eye of what later became the Strategic Defense Initiative” (Shultz 261). This account was also confirmed by Teller, who wrote, “Fifteen years later, I discovered that [Reagan] had been very interested in those ideas” (Teller, 509).
