Because of a brave young girl and her father being bold enough to stand up for their rights by trying to apply the 14th Amendment this was all possible. “Linda Brown was born on February 20, 1942, in Topeka, Kansas. Because she was forced to travel a significant distance to elementary school due to racial segregation, her father was one of the plaintiffs in the case of Brown v.

Brown v. Board of Education was a landmark case that was decided by the Supreme Court of America in 1954. It is a case that is believed to have brought to an end decades of increasing racial segregation that was experienced in America’s public schools. The landmark decision of this case was resolved from six separate cases that originated from four states. The Supreme Court is believed to have preferred rearguments in the case because of its preference for presentation of briefs. The briefs were to be heard from both sides of the case, with the focus being on five fundamental questions. The questions focused on the attorneys’ opinions about whether Congress viewed segregation in public schools when it ratified the 14th amendment (Benoit, 2013). Changes were then made to the Fourteenth Amendment’s Equal Protection Clause.
Brown vs. Board of Education (1954) was a landmark Supreme Court Case that overturned the separate but equal ideology established by the earlier Supreme Court Case Plessy vs. Ferguson (1896). The Plessy vs. Ferguson court case had a profound affect on the social interaction of racial groups in the late 19th to early 20th century causing tension between the two most prominent races within the United States, the Caucasians and the African Americans, which included Hispanics and other non-white citizens. The Supreme Court Case Brown vs. Board of Education eradicated legal racial discrimination given to the state government by the implementation of Jim Crow Law in schools and public settings leading to the beginning of the Civil Rights Movement which fought to put an end to the white supremacy and give all people especially those of color equal rights and protection under a court of law and in the eyes of government.
The landmark case, which changed everything for minorities, was Brown v. Board of Education of 1954, which overturned Plessy v. Ferguson. It is apparent to note, that our first Black Supreme Court Justice Thurgood Marshall played a pivotal role in the case. This case ended all desegregation of public schools all across the United States, in theory. Overall, things started looking better for minorities, but still discrimination existed and did not resolve many of the problems they still face. Mexicans were targeted as well during 1954, known as Operation Wetback, which allowed for the capture of foreign Mexicanos. In public schools, white teachers and black teachers began to earn equal pay, so the movement was effective, but how strong
Before the court case: Brown v. Board of Education, segregation at school was legal. Colored students went to a separate school than White students. The Importance of Brown v. Board of Education is that it marked segregation as unconstitutional and allowed students of all racial backgrounds to attend the same school.

On May 17, 1954, the U.S. Supreme Court ruled that segregation in American public schools was unconstitutional in the Brown v. Board of Education decision. Until this decision, many states had mandatory segregation laws. Resistance to the new ruling was so widespread that the court issued a second decision in 1955 known as Brown II. The new law ordered school districts to integrate “with a deliberate speed”. Minnijean Brown, Elizabeth Eckford, Ernest Green, Thelma Mothershed, Melba Patillo, Gloria Ray, Terrance Roberts, Jefferson Thomas, and Carlotta Walls were recruited by Daisy Bates, who was President of the Arkansas NAACP.
