Look at the picture please i beg youuu

By the picture data given, it looks like the laws shown are on the state level. This means that it is essentially a good thing that the green states prohibited segregation (and vice versa, in which it is a bad thing that the yellow states allow segregation). However, not having specific legislation on the state level means that it is up to the local governments to decide. In this case, we are trying to write the negative connotation for the "no legislation".

1) "Sounds good" - Having no specific legislation in the states could leave the local governments room to make choices, which in this case, would allow for integration locally decided by the residents, which in turn pushes for the ability for all races to use their rights.

2) "bad" - The same can be said for the opposite. As it is left to the local governments, if the locals do not want to give equal rights to all citizens regardless of skin color, then they can, in those states, effectuate segregation, even if the state itself does not support the usage of segregation.

Essentially, The green is the safest option in protecting equal rights, with purple and red being the middle grounds in which it is left to the local governments, and yellow being the segregationist.
