Had to look for the options and here is my answer.
Chief Justice Earl Warren is known as the former governor of California and under his leadership, the Supreme Court focused on the said issues but one which is the overturning the precedent of "separate but equal". This is with regards to school segregation. Hope this helps.
The correct answer is D) Compromise of 1850.
The Compromise of 1850 was a law that would temporarily settle the conflict over whether or not slavery would exist in the new territories gained after the Mexican-American War. The Mexican-American War saw the United States gain control of modern day California, New Mexico, Utah, Arizona etc.
At this time, the issue of slavery and its expansion was a hotly debated topic. This is due to the fact that Congressmen from slave states wanted these new territories to allow slavery. While the Congressmen from free states did not want slavery to expand. This is because expanding the institution of slavery would result in an imbalance of free and slave state representatives in Congress.
