Brown vs. Board of Education 1954 Historical Document "...if the colored children are denied the experience in school of associating with white children, who represent 90 percent of our national society in which these colored children must live, then the colored child's curriculum is being greatly curtailed. The Topeka curriculum or any school curriculum cannot be equal under segregation.“ -expert witnesses, Dr. Hugh W. Speer

The segregation of schools took away the equality of education between whites and blacks. Topic/main Idea

African Americans during this time period were pushing for all and any civil rights they could achieve. Point of view/Bias

1) The ruling of Brown vs. Board of Education was in favor of blacks. 2) Schools would have to be desegregated. 3) In Topeka, Kansas, a black third-grader named Linda Brown had to walk one mile through a railroad switchyard to get to her black elementary school, even though a white elementary school was only seven blocks away. 4) The Board of Education's defense was that, because segregation in Topeka and elsewhere pervaded many other aspects of life, segregated schools simply prepared black children for the segregation they would face during adulthood. 5) Overruled earlier case Plessy vs. Furguson InferencesInferences/outside information
