- i also think another key strategy was just having the students be escorted in the first place. i think without the escort the students could've been injured. ]]> 2020-05-14 18:18:30 UTC https://padlet.com/kadams1507/98tn0w01q2tagvxt/wish/573445112 kadams1507 https://padlet.com/kadams1507/98tn0w01q2tagvxt/wish/573451078 this was a supreme court case that  unanimously ruled that racial segregation in public schools was unconstitutional.

- 14th amendment:  "granted citizenship to all persons born or naturalized in the United States—including former slaves—and guaranteed all citizens “equal protection of the laws.” One of three amendments passed during the Reconstruction era to abolish slavery and establish civil and legal rights for black Americans, it would become the basis for many landmark Supreme Court decisions over the years."
