Question

which of the following supreme court decisions forced the university of texas to admit an african american student to its law school?
plessy v. ferguson
sweatt v. painter
brown v. board of education
brown v. plessy

Explanation:

In Sweatt v. Painter, the Supreme - Court ruled that the University of Texas Law School had to admit Heman Marion Sweatt, an African - American student, as the separate law school for African - Americans was not equal to the main law school. Plessy v. Ferguson established "separate but equal" which was later challenged. Brown v. Board of Education dealt with segregation in public schools. There is no Brown v. Plessy case.

Answer:

B. Sweatt v. Painter
