Women during the era of the Middle Ages were expected to obey their father, brothers, and other male members of the family. Unruly girls were often beaten into submission, and disobedience was considered a crime against religion. Education for noblewomen was more practical than academic. At as early as seven years of age, young girls were sent to live with another noble family. Girls would be taught several skills and subjects. Of primary importance were etiquette and manners. Girls were also taught how to dance, ride, curtsey, and socialize with the greatest nobles of the land. Young ladies were expected to act as servants to the older ladies of the castle. They performed duties such as looking after clothes and preserving fruits. Household management was taught in preparation for marriage. Higher-ranking girls were taught French and the principles of the Medieval Code and attended jousting tournaments. The Hundred Years' War occurred from 1337 to 1453. The conflict started when English kings claimed the French throne. After a series of battles, the French finally ousted the English. The Hundred Years' War marked a change in traditional warfare: New weapons and tactics were utilized, and for the first time in European history, armies were comprised of paid troops rather than vassals. A woman, seventeen years of age, became a hero in France during the Hundred Years' War.

Read the excerpt from a supporting opinion of the supreme court’s ruling in plessy v. ferguson, 1896. laws permitting, and even requiring, their separation in places where they are liable to be brought into contact do not necessarily imply the inferiority of either race to the other, and have been generally, if not universally, recognized as within the competency of the state legislatures in the exercise of their police power. how does this relate to the premises of brown v. board of education? the brown case addresses whether state legislatures are equipped to judge the quality of education offered at segregated schools. the brown case addresses whether authorities believe that one race is inferior to another when creating public schools. the brown case addresses whether these laws inherently deny certain citizens equal protection under the law. the brown case addresses the legality of using police power to monitor public places separated by race.
