Answer:
At the turn of the new century women and African-Americans still lacked equal rights
Explanation:
The doctrine of incorporation, beginning in 1873, led to the gradual extension of fundamental constitutional rights for all citizens, yet women and African Americans did not have equal rights. At the turn of the century, activists like W. E. B. Du Bois created the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People in defense of racial equality and the progress of the black community. The Brown v. Board of Education at the Supreme Court in 1954 was the legal basis for ending racial segregation, but it was not enough for everyone to have equal rights. Rosa Parks led the boycott of the Montgomery buses the following year.
