While researching immigration to the U. S. in the 1800s, Cecil reads these two texts:

Text 1: New arrivals traveling in first or second class disembarked in Manhattan and were allowed to enter the U. S. without a physical examination. Third-class “steerage” passengers, on the other hand, were sent on barges to Ellis Island, where they endured thorough exams that tested their physical and mental health.

Text 2: Only immigrants traveling in third class actually went through Ellis Island. Once there, they were given an invasive medical and psychological exam. First- or second-class immigrants were given a brief examination when their ships arrived in Manhattan and then permitted to leave the ship and go through Customs.

What is the point of difference, or conflict, between these texts?

A.
They differ on the classes of immigrants sent to Ellis Island.
B.
They differ on the types of exams given to third-class passengers.
C.
They differ on where first- and second-class passengers entered the U. S.
D.
They differ on whether first- and second-class passengers were examined before entering the U. S.

What is most likely the speaker’s reason to open with this? in approaching this problem, we cannot turn the clock back to 1868, when the [fourteenth] amendment was adopted, or even to 1896, when plessy v. ferguson was written. we must consider public education in the light of its full development and its present place in american life throughout the nation. only in this way can it be determined if segregation in public schools deprives these plaintiffs of the equal protection of the laws.
