1 Brown Vs The Board of Education
By Lydia Duarte

2 Plessy V Ferguson Originally upheld that it was NOT unconstitutional to separate educational facilities as long as they were equal.

If schools are segregated, they cannot be equal. To be truly equal, they must be integrated. To be equal, students should be taught by the same teachers in the same buildings with access to the same resources.
