Which excerpt from the passage “Equal Justice Under Law: Thurgood Marshall” most effectively illustrates Marshall’s view that se

gregation was unconstitutional?
“…while Marshall earned high grades in college, the all-white law school of the University of Maryland refused to admit him. (Maryland had no law school for African Americans.)”

“In 1896, in the case of Plessy v. Ferguson, the Court had ruled that segregation was allowed under the Constitution: the facilities for black Americans, the Court said, simply had to be as good as those for whites—'separate but equal.’”

Marshall repeated the argument he had made in South Carolina. Segregation hurt black children. There was no reason for it, other than to keep one race up and the other down."

"He wanted to persuade the court that segregation was itself wrong, that the whole idea of “separate but equal” was fundamentally unjust."

Answer: "He wanted to persuade the court that segregation was itself wrong, that the whole idea of “separate but equal” was fundamentally unjust."

Explanation:

Thurgood Marshall was the first African-American Justice in the Supreme Court. He was a civil rights activist who argued that segregation was not only wrong, but unconstitutional.

Marshall argued before the Supreme Court several times before he became a justice and in one of his arguments against the constitutionality of segregation, Marshall argued that the idea of ''separate but equal'' was unjust and open to interpretation that made it unconstitutional.

Why is the example below considered a theme and not a plot summary?
Tomtit [17]
This is a theme because it is a concept NOT the story line. A plot summary is basically the story line as if you were writing a summary of the book or story.
