Answer 1

D. The "separate but equal" doctrine was establish

Step-by-step explanation:

When the separate but equal doctrine was implemented it gave constitutional sanction to some laws that were designed to achieve segregation on a racial basis by the means of having separate but equal public facilities and services for white Americans and African Americans. This of course was extremely detrimental for the African American population and they had equal public facilities only on paper.
