Question

the majority opinion
laws permitting, and even requiring, their separation in places where they are liable to be brought into contact do not necessarily imply the inferiority of either race to the other.
which statements summarize justice brown’s message? check all that apply.
□ separation does not necessarily create inequality.
□ separation implies inferiority.
□ laws that permit separation can be constitutional.
□ the law cannot permit separation to occur.
□ separation always creates inferiority.

Explanation:

The quoted text is from the Plessy v. Ferguson majority opinion (which Justice Brown wrote), stating that racial separation laws do not inherently mean one race is inferior, and such laws can be constitutional. The other options reflect the dissenting or later Brown v. Board of Education views, not Justice Brown's message here.

Answer:

• Separation does not necessarily create inequality.
• Laws that permit separation can be constitutional.
