Fighting for Civil Rights: Legal System Founded in 1909, the NAACP is the nation’s oldest civil rights organization. Throughout the 1920s and 1930s, the association led the black civil rights struggle in fighting injustices such as the denial of voting rights, racial violence, discrimination in employment, and segregated public facilities. Dedicated to the goal of an integrated society, the national leadership has always been interracial, although the membership has remained predominantly African American.

Segregated School damage Kids: Doll Test:

Brown V. Board of Education Segregationist’s Argument: 1.The Constitution did not require white and African American children to attend the same schools. 2.Social separation of blacks and whites was a regional custom; the states should be left free to regulate their own social affairs. 3. Segregation was not harmful to black people. 4. Whites were making a good faith effort to equalize the two educational systems. But because black children were still living with the effects of slavery, it would take some time before they were able to compete with white children in the same classroom. -Write a counter for each argument

Brown Vs. Board of Education: Decision Decision: Chief Justice Earl Warren and the Warren Court -Separate is unequal; violates 14th amendment -Psychologically damages kids -Overrules Plessy v. Fergusson “Segregation of white and colored children in public schools has a detrimental effect upon the colored children. The impact is greater when it has the sanction of the law, for the policy of separating the races is usually interpreted as denoting the inferiority of the Negro group...Any language in contrary to this finding is rejected. We conclude that in the field of public education the doctrine of ‘separate but equal’ has no place. Separate educational facilities are inherently unequal. “ —Earl Warren, Chief Justice of the U.S. Supreme Court
