Which of the following tactics did a political party use to reconcile American ideals with public policy?

Question

A) Hundreds of White and Black people got on buses and rode through the South to test the desegregation of interstate travel by the federal government.
B) In Supreme Court case Swann v. Charlotte-Mecklenburg Board of Education, the court ruled that forced busing of students to integrate schools is permissible.
C) President Grant, who led Northern armies during the Civil War to defeat the Southern Confederacy, was elected in 1868.
D) Leaders of the National American Woman Suffrage Association lobbied state legislators to pass state amendments to permit women voting rights.

Answer 1

The correct answer is D) Leaders of the National American Woman Suffrage Association lobbied state legislators to pass state amendments to permit women voting rights.

This tactic reflects a strategic approach by a political party (or movement) to reconcile the American ideal of equal rights and representation with public policy by actively advocating for legislative changes at the state level to secure voting rights for women. The other choices, while significant, do not directly demonstrate the action of a political party reconciling ideals with public policy in the same manner.
