Why would a unanimous decision on the Linda Brown case "carry more weight than a divided one?
Brown v. Board of Education of Topeka was a landmark 1954 Supreme Court case in which the justices ruled unanimously that racial segregation of children in public schools was unconstitutional. Brown v. Board of Education was one of the cornerstones of the civil rights movement, and helped establish the precedent that “separate-but-equal” education and other services were not, in fact, equal at all.
Separate But Equal Doctrine
In 1896, the Supreme Court ruled in Plessy v. Ferguson that racially segregated public facilities were legal, so long as the facilities for Black people and whites were equal.
The ruling constitutionally sanctioned laws barring African Americans from sharing the same buses, schools and other public facilities as whites—known as “Jim Crow” laws—and established the “separate but equal” doctrine that would stand for the next six decades.
But by the early 1950s, the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP) was working hard to challenge segregation laws in public schools, and had filed lawsuits on behalf of plaintiffs in states such as South Carolina, Virginia and Delaware.
In the case that would become most famous, a plaintiff named Oliver Brown filed a class-action suit against the Board of Education of Topeka, Kansas, in 1951, after his daughter, Linda Brown, was denied entrance to Topeka’s all-white elementary schools.
In his lawsuit, Brown claimed that schools for Black children were not equal to the white schools, and that segregation violated the so-called “equal protection clause” of the 14th Amendment, which holds that no state can “deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws.”
The case went before the U.S. District Court in Kansas, which agreed that public school segregation had a “detrimental effect upon the colored children” and contributed to “a sense of inferiority,” but still upheld the “separate but equal” doctrine.

Brown v. Board of Education Verdict
When Brown’s case and four other cases related to school segregation first came before the Supreme Court in 1952, the Court combined them into a single case under the name Brown v. Board of Education of Topeka.
Thurgood Marshall, the head of the NAACP Legal Defense and Educational Fund, served as chief attorney for the plaintiffs. (Thirteen years later, President Lyndon B. Johnson would appoint Marshall as the first Black Supreme Court justice.)
At first, the justices were divided on how to rule on school segregation, with Chief Justice Fred M. Vinson holding the opinion that the Plessy verdict should stand. But in September 1953, before Brown v. Board of Education was to be heard, Vinson died, and President Dwight D. Eisenhower replaced him with Earl Warren, then governor of California.
Displaying considerable political skill and determination, the new chief justice succeeded in engineering a unanimous verdict against school segregation the following year.
In the decision, issued on May 17, 1954, Warren wrote that “in the field of public education the doctrine of ‘separate but equal’ has no place,” as segregated schools are “inherently unequal.” As a result, the Court ruled that the plaintiffs were being “deprived of the equal protection of the laws guaranteed by the 14th Amendment.”
Little Rock Nine
In its verdict, the Supreme Court did not specify how exactly schools should be integrated, but asked for further arguments about it.
In May 1955, the Court issued a second opinion in the case (known as Brown v. Board of Education II), which remanded future desegregation cases to lower federal courts and directed district courts and school boards to proceed with desegregation “with all deliberate speed.”
Though well intentioned, the Court’s actions effectively opened the door to local judicial and political evasion of desegregation. While Kansas and some other states acted in accordance with the verdict, many school and local officials in the South defied it.
In one major example, Governor Orval Faubus of Arkansas called out the state National Guard to prevent Black students from attending high school in Little Rock in 1957. After a tense standoff, President Eisenhower deployed federal troops, and nine students—known as the “Little Rock Nine”—were able to enter Central High School under armed guard.

Impact of Brown v. Board of Education
Though the Supreme Court’s decision in Brown v. Board didn’t achieve school desegregation on its own, the ruling (and the steadfast resistance to it across the South) fueled the nascent civil rights movement in the United States.

15. What were Herbert Hoover's attitude/actions toward the Great
Depression? How did he feel government should handle it?
Herbert Hoover had a very relaxed attitude towards the great depression. He believed that it would go away with time. He also thought that instead of government programs to help people, such as welfare, charities and churches should be taking care of people, not the government. Essentially he didn't think the government should be handling it. Over time, it became obvious that charities and churches could not help the millions of people in need that were starving and homeless. He enacted a few government programs but by then it was too late. The depression had lasted far too long, and people were done with him. He lost his reelection to Franklin Roosevelt.

Why didn’t Kwame Nkrumah in Ghana and Sukarno in Indonesia align with the US or USSR? What advantages did that give them?
The correct answer to this open question is the following.
Although there are no options attached we can comment on the following.
Kwame Nkrumah in Ghana and Sukarno in Indonesia didn't align with the US or USSR because they were firm believers in the foreign policy of neutrality. They had no special ties or preferences for the Soviet Union or the United States.
The advantage that this gave them was to remain neutral in the face of conflict, which they thought was positive to bring peace to the region during the Cold War years.
These two countries were part of the Non-Aligned Movement (NAM) that played a key role during the Cold War Years to help bring peace and stabilization
The NAM organization started in 1955 due to the Asia-Africa Conference of Bandung, Indonesia, to the initiative of Asian and African countries such as India, Pakistan, Burma, Indonesia, Ghana, and Ceylon.

Which reformist was against selling indulgences in the Roman Catholic Church and nailed 95 reasons about selling them were wrong?
Answer:
Martin Luther.
Explanation:
Martin Luther was a German theologian, a monk, an author, etc. among many other titles. He was famous for his "Ninety-Five Theses" which critiques the selling of indulgences by the Catholic Church. He would later be the influence behind the increase and spread of secular democracy in the Christian world.
Luther was against the practice of clergy selling plenary indulgences to the public. These indulgences are a sort of 'forgiven pass' for believers to get to heaven with lesser 'punishments'. This means that buying indulgences allow a person to get fewer punishments after death and get to heaven. Martin Luther believed that faith alone is the only requirement to get to heaven and not such indulgences. He famously printed his Ninety-Five Theses and nailed it to the Church door.

Option C is also incorrect because the Mauryans didn't establish a central government that allowed local rule; rather, they maintained a centralized government.
Option D is incorrect because both the Mauryans and Guptas encouraged the construction of public works.

What did the Supreme Court rule in the case of Gibbons v. Ogden?
A. Only the federal government had the right to control interstate commerce.
B. States had power over the national government in matters involving taxation.
C. A state could not tax a national bank.
D. A state had the right to control its own commerce.
Answer:
A
Explanation:
Answer:
A. Only the federal government had the right to control interstate commerce.
Explanation:
This case began because New York gave one man a monopoly over the Hudson River, which runs through more than just NY. The case ended up in The Supreme Court with John Marshall as Chief Justice. In the constitution, it stated that the federal government had power over the state government. This meant that the states could not do anything to override the federal government. So, in the end, it was decided that only the federal government could control trade between or across states.
