apr 27, 1954 - Brown vs. Board of Education of Topeka
Description:
A landmark case involving the United States Supreme Court. The case effectively desegregated all schools in the country (in law but not necessarily in practice).
The "unconstitutional" nature of segregation in schools, backed up by a unanimous 9-0 decision, was a major win for the NAACP and Civil Rights in the US as a whole.
