Brown vs. Board of Education LAD #30

Brown vs. Board of Education was a supreme court trial that ultimately ended in a decision that would change America forever. It happened in Topeka, Kansas where, third grader, Linda Brown wished to go to an all white school which was seven blocks away instead of being forced to walk a dangerous long route to get to an all-black school. NAACP supported Linda Brown and they challenged the school board claiming that segregation all though seperate, is not equal. NAACP claimed that segregation in schools and segregation in general was making black children feel inferior to whties. Although the they lost at a local judicial level they ultimately repealed the case all the way to the supreme court. Ultimately Justice Earl Warren ruled that segregation wasn't fair or equal and ordered that from then on public schools be integrated.
