Définition

  • Cooper v. Aaron (1958) was the Supreme Court ruling to put into effect the decisions in Brown v. Board of Education—the landmark cases that held that racially segregated public schools were inherently unequal and therefore denied black students the equal protection rights guaranteed by the Fourteenth Amendment to the U.S. Constitution. The two decisions in 1954 and 1955, referred to as Brown I and Brown II, respectively, ordered the states to desegregate the schools.
