attitudes concerning school desegregation  

Definición

  • In 1954, the U.S. Supreme Court overturned its Plessy v. Ferguson decision of 1896, which had declared that separate but equal schools for White and African American students were legal. In the famous Brown v. Board of Education (Brown I) decision, the Court declared that the legally supported dual school systems (de jure segregation), which enrolled 40% of the nation's public school students at that time, were inherently unequal and that intentional government action supporting segregation violated the U.S. Constitution.
