oct 3, 1954 - Brown v. Board of Education (1954)

Description:

Brown V. Board of Education of Topeka, Kansas that ruled that segregation in the public schools was inherently unequal and thus unconstitutional. This would reverse the decision of the 1896 Plessy v. Ferguson case that allowed separate but equal facilities. Desegregation must go ahead at deliberate speed.
