Question

what was generally true about segregated facilities?

a. the same amount of money was spent to build facilities for african americans and whites.

b. facilities for african americans were of poorer quality.

c. facilities for whites were more expensive to enter.

d. the same amount of money was spent to maintain facilities for african americans and whites.

Explanation:

During the era of segregation in the United States, facilities for African Americans were systematically underfunded and of lower quality compared to those for white people. Option A is incorrect because funding was unequal. Option C is incorrect as there was no such general trend of white facilities being more expensive to enter related to segregation's core inequality. Option D is incorrect as maintenance funding was also unequal. Only option B reflects the reality of segregated facilities.

Answer:

B. Facilities for African Americans were of poorer quality.
