Answer:

<u>B. He allowed Lee's men to keep their horses and side arms. </u>

Explanation:

On April 9, 1865, the leader of the Confederacy, Robert E. Lee, and the leader of the Union, Ulysses S. Grant, met in The Appomattox Court House to sign the documents that put an end to the civil war and established the surrender of the Confederacy to the Union. A document whose surrender terms were widely considered generous to the defeated Confederacy because all Confederate men were pardoned and all Confederate military equipment was relinquished except their horses and side arms.

What does the Supreme Court ruling about "Separate but Equal" mean?
solmaris [256]

Answer:

The answer is that separate facilities for white and black people was constitutional as long as the facilities were equal.

Explanation:

Separate but equal was a legal doctrine in American constitutional law that justified systems of segregation.

Under this doctrine, services, facilities and public accommodations were allowed to be separated by race, on the condition that the quality of each group’s public facilities was to remain equal.

Although the Constitutional doctrine required equality, the facilities and social services offered to African-Americans were almost always of lower quality than those offered to white Americans.

The doctrine of “separate but equal” was legitimized in the 1896 Supreme Court case, Plessy v. Ferguson.
