“Separate but Equal”

Brown vs. Board of Ed

Brown vs. Board of Education Overview of Case This case is a consolidation of several different cases from Kansas, South Carolina, Virginia, and Delaware. Several black children (through their legal representatives, Ps) sought admission to public schools that required or permitted segregation based on race. The plaintiffs alleged that segregation was unconstitutional under the Equal Protection Clause of the Fourteenth Amendment. In all but one case, a three judge federal district court cited Plessy v. Ferguson in denying relief under the “separate but equal” doctrine. On appeal to the Supreme Court, the plaintiffs contended that segregated schools were not and could not be made equal and that they were therefore deprived of equal protection of the laws.

Brown vs. Board of Education Supreme Court’s Decision: The race-based segregation of children into “separate but equal” public schools violates the Equal Protection Clause of the Fourteenth Amendment and is unconstitutional. Despite the “separate but equal” requirement outlined in the earlier Plessy vs. Ferguson decision, the act of separating students based on race implies inequality. “Separating black children from others solely because of their race generates a feeling of inferiority as to their status in the community that may affect their hearts and minds in a way unlikely ever to be undone.” Schools must desegregate with “all deliberate speed.” What does this mean? Why is the wording so vague? How did Southern whites react?
