The correct answer is B) How did Georgians feel about segregation and the integration of schools?

The question that the Sibley Commission was attempting to answer was "How did Georgians feel about segregation and the integration of schools."

We are talking about a time in the state of Georgia history when civil rights movements exerted pressure to respect African American rights. That is why governor Ernest Vandiver Jr. asked Congressman George Busbee in 1960 to create a Commission to study the case of segregation and desegregation if public schools. That was the beginning of the Sibley Commission, that attempted to answer the question: "How did Georgians feel about segregation and the integration of schools?"

Option D

Explanation:

Sibley Commission was created in 1960 and was charged with gathering data about citizens opinions regarding desegregation and to let the public voice opinions about desegregation in public schools in Georgia. This committee recommended that local school systems should be allowed to decide if they would act by a probable court order to integrate public schools or if they would close. Which leads Governor Ernest Vandiver Jr. to decide whether Georgia will apply the federal order of desegregation or will close their public schools.
