Answer:

A. It is OK to have separate schools for blacks and whites, so long as both have qualified teachers.

Explanation:

The 1896 landmark Plessy v. Ferguson decision refused to halt or reform segregation. The question was: Is it legal to keep separated facilities for blacks and whites? The US Supreme Court ruled that separate but equal facilities for different racial groups were not unconstitutional.
