Solution

The correct answer is the Fourteenth Amendment’s equal protection clause. The NAACP (National Association for the Advancement of Colored People) used a legal defense strategy from the 1930s to the 1950s that led to the US Supreme Court applying the Fourteenth Amendment's equal protection clause to race relations in the American South. This clause provides that no state shall deny to any person within its jurisdiction "the equal protection of the laws".
