What transpired: Racial segregation in public schools was ruled to be illegal in the historic Supreme Court case Brown v. Board of Education. The case consolidated a number of lawsuits filed by Black families nationwide who opposed the "separate but equal" theory put forth in Plessy v. Ferguson in 1896. In a unanimous decision, the Supreme Court declared that segregated schools violated the Equal Protection Clause of the 14th Amendment and were fundamentally unfair.

Why This Event Was Significant: The civil rights movement underwent a historic shift as a result of this ruling. It cleared the path for subsequent attempts to attain racial equality in the US and ended decades of officially sanctioned segregation. It also showed how the Supreme Court can influence national policies and defend individual liberties.
