d. Pray in a public school
e. Recited the Pledge of Allegiance in a public school

Answer 1

Hint: Passed on May 17, 1954, the Court's consistent choice expressed that "separate instructive offices are naturally inconsistent", and accordingly violate the Equal Protection Clause of the Fourteenth Amendment of the U.S. Constitution.

Complete solution:
Brown v. Board of Education of Topeka, 347 U.S. 483, was a milestone choice of the U.S. High Court in which the Court decided that American state laws setting up racial isolation in government-funded schools are unlawful, regardless of whether the isolated schools are generally equivalent in quality. In any case, the choice's 14 pages didn't explain such a strategy for finishing racial isolation in schools, and the Court's second choice in Brown II just arranged states to integrate "with all purposeful speed".

The case began in 1951 when the government-funded school region in Topeka, Kansas, would not enlist the girl of nearby dark occupant Oliver Brown at the school nearest to their home, rather expecting her to ride transport to an isolated dark primary school farther away. No transport administration accommodated white understudies, who were needed to stroll to their schools, and the actual offices and instruction at the dark schools were significantly equivalent to the white schools.

Hence, the correct answer is option C.

Note:
The Court's choice in Brown halfway overruled Plessy v. Ferguson by proclaiming that the "separate yet equivalent" idea was unlawful for American government-funded schools and instructive offices. It prepared for joining and was a significant triumph of social equality development, and a model for some future effect prosecution cases.
