1 answer
The answer is D. The Sibley Commission was set up by Governor Ernest Vandiver in 1960 to study the issue of desegregation in Georgia's public schools. The commission recommended that local school systems should be allowed to decide whether or not to integrate, rather than having a statewide mandate for integration.
