the supreme court was handed the case of brown v board of education which was the fight to get rid of segregation in schools.

the decision was to abolish segregation because and I quote, "separate is not equal" and segregation violated the Equal Protection Clause of the Fourteenth Amendment. The supreme court got rid of it entirely and allowed whites and blacks to be in the same school.
If the supreme court wouldn't of said to abolish it, imagine how school would be in todays era. Now a days there's so much diversity in the world. If schools still had segregation life wouldn't be the same. Racism would be taught to young kids just by going to school. Even though racism still exists today, if we had segregation, racism would probably be at it's highest just because of what young people are brought into.
