The correct answer is TRUE.

Plessy v. Ferguson is a case from 1896 which, back then, lead to the enactment of a landmark decision by the US Supreme Court .

The decision allowed the proliferation of segregated public facilities under the belief that, if facilities were equal in quality, such system was not violating the Equal Protection Clause that guaranteed equality of rights for all US citizens. Such clause had been included in the 14th Amendment to the US Consitution, issued in 1868 during the Reconstruction Era.

<u>Through this decision the US Supreme Court accepted the constitutionality of the denominated "separate but equal" lemma and, as a consquence, of segregation. </u>

If you were a US civilian living during World War II, which government action would have influenced your everyday life most?

trasher [3.6K]

If i were a US civilian living during World War II, the rationing of materials to support the war effort would be the government action that would have influenced my everyday life the most. The correct option in regards to the given question is option "D". Rationing of materials would definitely create a shortage of regularly needed materials in the market. This would be a hard thing to accept. Since we all live our daily life in a fixed pattern, it is difficult to adjust to any kind of curtails. This shortage can always lead to a higher rate for buying those restricted materials and thus my income could seem less than before as the cost of buying gets increased.
