This school was closer to their home than the all-black school. Mr. Brown and twelve other families filled a lawsuit against the school. Brown v. Board of Education made racial segregation in public schools unconstitutional in 1954, however the case was presented in 1952. The Supreme Court, in the case of Brown v Board of Education, overruled the verdict of Plessy v Ferguson. This verdict ruled that segregation in public facilities was legal. ]]> 2023-03-26 16:01:58 UTC https://padlet.com/victoriaz916/6fpua4z7uby1x8zi/wish/2531884863 victoriaz916 https://padlet.com/victoriaz916/6fpua4z7uby1x8zi/wish/2531919668 The Civil Rights Act of 1964 ended segregation in public places as well as banned employment discrimination in regards to race, religion, gender, or nationality.
