Explanation:

Identify the landmark school integration ruling

The first question asks: "What was the Supreme Court ruling that integrated schools?"

• Dred Scott v. Sandford (1857) ruled that African Americans were not citizens.
• Brown v. Board of Education (1954) ruled that racial segregation in public schools is unconstitutional.
• Plessy v. Ferguson (1896) established the "separate but equal" doctrine.
• Bush v. Gore (2000) decided the 2000 presidential election.

Therefore, the correct choice is Brown v. Board of Education.

Analyze the immediacy of school integration

The second question (Question 6) is a True/False statement: "True/False: Schools were immediately integrated after the Supreme Court said they should be."

• Following the 1954 Brown I decision, the Supreme Court issued Brown II in 1955, ordering school districts to desegregate "with all deliberate speed."
• This vague phrasing allowed for widespread resistance, delay, and evasion across the South (known as Massive Resistance).
• Actual integration took many years and faced severe opposition, meaning schools were not integrated immediately.

Therefore, the statement is False.
