Question

How was the Fourteenth Amendment used to end the doctrine of “separate but equal”?

A.
The Court declared that an equal number of black and white schools had to be created.

B.
The Court extended “the equal protection of the laws” to the use of public facilities.

C.
It was left to the states to decide how best to address the overturning of “separate but equal.”

D.
Brown v. Board only applied to the schools in Topeka, Kansas, nowhere else.

I think its B

Answer 1

No. Why are you posting a guess here?

Answer 2

Not a guess. I believe it should be B because when the "separate but equal" law was overturned, it applied to other facilities (to my knowledge). It cannot be A, I do not think (D) Brown v Board only applied to Topeka, and I do not think (from what I read) that states were left to make the decisions in this scenario

Answer 3

I apologize. I misread your answer. B is right;
