Why does the Supreme Court feel that the “separate but equal” doctrine does not violate the 14th Amendment?

History

The Supreme Court felt that the "separate but equal" doctrine didn't violate the 14th Amendment because they believed that both blacks and whites were being treated equally despite being separate. The 14th Amendment gave American citizenship to all African Americans, this included former slaves. This means that the government must give all American citizens the same rights, equal protection, and due process.

The Brown v. Board of Education case proved that the "separate but equal" doctrine was false. This was where a young African American girl had to walk a long way to her black school, while there was a white school very close to her home. This was an obvious problem and proved that "separate but equal" was not equal at all. Eventually, this case ended segregation in public schools. The Plessy v. Ferguson case also proved this, but the Supreme Court tried to justify the "separate but equal" doctrine by saying how blacks and whites have the same equal facilities.

which statement best describes how the concept of narural rights influenced the decltration of independance
Pani-rosa [81]

You r answer is <em>D. It inspired Americans to move toward self-rule by declaring independence from a government that denied them representation.</em>

Explanation:

The Declaration is based on the settings of the School of Natural Law and the philosophy of J. Locke, while similar in structure to the European feudal charters of liberty, in particular the English Bill of Rights of 1688. The declaration, in its introductory part, proclaims the inalienable natural rights of man to equality, life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness, the right of the people to independence and the free choice of government, and the right of the people to rebellion and the removal of tyrannical power. He then enumerates thirty violations of the rights of the colonies committed by the British king, justifying their rebellion; ends with the declaration that the united colonies are free and independent states.
