Answer 1

The doctrine of "separate but equal" takes away Black citizens' rights to an equal public education.

Answer 2

## Step 1The problem presents a passage from the opinion of the court in the case of Brown v. Board of Education. The passage discusses the negative impact of segregation on colored children, particularly in the context of public education. The court finds that segregation, even if it is legally sanctioned, can lead to a sense of inferiority among colored children, which can hinder their educational and mental development.## Step 2The court also rejects any language in the Plessy v. Ferguson case that contradicts this finding. This indicates that the court is not in favor of the "separate but equal" doctrine, which was the basis of the Plessy v. Ferguson case.## Step 3Based on the above analysis, the statement that accurately summarizes the court's opinion is that the doctrine of "separate but equal" takes away Black citizens' rights to an equal public education. This statement aligns with the court's finding that segregation can lead to a sense of inferiority among colored children, which can hinder their educational and mental development.
