Which best identifies Jackie Robinson’s reason for writing his letter to President Eisenhower?

a) He believes that the president should punish Governor Faubus for his inexcusable actions.

B) He hopes that the president will take immediate action to curb segregation laws at the federal level.

C) He feels that the president has too much sympathy for pro-segregationists like Governor Faubus.

D) He thinks that the president should be commended for his remarks at the Summit Meeting of Negro Leaders.

Answer:- B) He hopes that the president will take immediate action to curb segregation laws at the federal level.

The correct answer is ‘He hopes that the president will take immediate action to curb segregation laws at the federal level.’ Jackie Robinson played baseball in the major leagues. He played in that position for the first time as an African-American. In order to get the president’s support for ending institutional prejudice against black people, he wrote the letter to him. This resulted not just from him being a target of racism but also from the fact that he worked for a company that promoted the civil rights of black people. He frequently wrote to American presidents to voice his opinions on various racism-related matters. He asked for military assistance to come and defend the rights because these issues included stopping pupils from attending school because of their skin tone.
