Socratic Seminar Essential Question What role does differing perspectives on American identity play in creating conflict and inspiring change in our society? Civil Rights Movement – change and conflict 1950s/60s culture/counterculture 1950s politics/McCarthyism

Plessy v. Ferguson Separate but Equal If adhered to, usually only worried about number (one for white, one for black) with far inferior facilities for African Americans Rule often ignored completely (not well enforced)

Segregation Schools “Black” schools usually underfunded, understaffed, and had inferior buildings Students often walked miles to get to school as busses not provided

Segregation in housing De facto Segregation by custom More often seen in northern cities Ex: not selling homes in certain neighborhoods to African Americans De Jure Segregation by law Racial zoning laws usually seen in the South

Segregation - other Laws against interracial marriage Based on ideas of racial purity Disenfranchisement White primaries Poll taxes Gerrymandering

Slow progress Executive Order 9981 CORE National Urban League NAACP Desegregated armed forces CORE Student non-violent protests National Urban League Fight against problems from Great Migration in the North NAACP Fought for Civil Rights legislation

Brown v. Board of Education Linda Brown passes white school every day as she travels miles to her own school Father, Oliver Brown, reaches out to NAACP to push for desegregation Local courts deny and case becomes class action lawsuit that reaches supreme court. New chief justice, Earl Warren, takes over What do we know about the Warren court?

Brown v. Board of Education Rules that idea of “separate but equal” is unconstitutional and states must desegregate schools with “all deliberate speed” Becomes precedent by which future cases against segregation in other areas are judged

Brown v. Board reactions I couldn’t imagine they would ever change their minds and allow their children to go to school with me, no matter what laws those men on the Supreme Court made. -Melba Patillo Beals (Little Rock 9) Northern white people more likely to accept decision White southerners often react harshly Protests KKK demonstrations Refusal to comply with ruling Would later take federal government action to enforce.
