Select the correct text in the passage.
The following text is from the majority decision in the Brown v. Board of Education Supreme Court case. Which text relates most directly to the
Fourteenth Amendment?
Today, education is perhaps the most important function of state and local governments. Compulsory school attendance laws and the great
expenditures for education both demonstrate our recognition of the importance of education to our democratic society. It is required in the
performance of our most basic public responsibilities, even service in the armed forces. It is the very foundation of good citizenship. Today it
is a principal Instrument in awakening the child to cultural values, in preparing him for later professional training, and in helping him to adjust
normally to his environment. In these days, it is doubtful that any child may reasonably be expected to succeed in life if he is denied the
opportunity of an education. Such an opportunity, where the state has undertaken to provide it, is a right which must be made available to all
on equal terms. We come then to the question presented: does segregation of children in public schools solely on the basis of race, even though
the physical facilities and other "tangible" factors may be equal, deprive the children of the minority group of equal educational opportunities?
We believe that it does.
