Question

question 10 of 10
how does justice black support the dissenting opinion?
a. by arguing that all students were at one time required to take german
b. by arguing that the constitution does not have to be obeyed
c. by citing the west virginia v. barnette case about the flag
d. by referring to the waugh v. mississippi university case about protests in fraternities

Explanation:

This question refers to Justice Hugo Black's dissenting opinion in a First Amendment-related case (likely Tinker v. Des Moines Independent Community School District). Justice Black dissented by emphasizing that schools need order, and he cited West Virginia State Board of Education v. Barnette (a case where the Court ruled mandatory flag salutes violated the First Amendment, but Black took the opposing view in that case and referenced it to argue against student speech protections in schools, stating that schools should have authority to enforce rules). Option A is irrelevant, B is incorrect as Black did not argue the Constitution should be disobeyed, and D's case is not associated with his dissent here.

Answer:

C. By citing the West Virginia v. Barnette case about the flag
