b. the south complied quickly, but school districts filed numerous lawsuits against the us government.
c. the south resisted integration for years by staging protests and fighting desegregation in court.
d. the south increased spending on african american schools to maintain its segregated school system.?

The correct answer is c.the south resisted integration for years by staging protests and fighting desegregation in court.

Brown vs. Board of Education is one of the most influential Supreme Court cases in US history, as it resulted in the desegregation of public schools. Despite the fact that the Supreme Court ruled these types of all white schools illegal, many Southern states refused to follow this law. Many Southerners were still firm believers in the separation of races in public places.

This is why in many states the state governments used their power to stop the integration of certain schools. A perfect example of this would be Central High School in Little Rock Arkansas. The governor used his forces to stop 9 black students from attending a previously all white school. However, the federal government got invovled with this case and used the national guard to ensure these students were able to attend Central High School.

is there answer choices?
