One of the major leaders in the Brown vs. Board of Education case was Chief Justice Earl Warren. On May 17, 1954,  Warren delivered the unanimous ruling in the landmark civil rights case, Brown vs. Board of Education. State-sanctioned segregation of public schools was a violation of the 14th Amendment and was therefore unconstitutional. This historic decision marked the end of the "separate but equal" and served as a catalyst for the expanding civil rights movement during the 1950s.
