The Brown v Board of Education case was a historical case in African American history. It made were schools could no longer be segregated and blacks would attend schools that they couldn’t before. It also made it so they couldn’t treated or punished differently. The case was between a school in Topeka, Kansas and 20 black parents. That case made easier for blacks to get educations they needed.
That case was a major victory for blacks and their fight for civil rights. It meant they were one step closer to being equal and having the same rights as whites. It was great for blacks but ignited rage in some white racist. Who felt that blacks should not be in the same school as their children. In the South they fought to stop the law that stopped segregation in schools. They said it was trying to change their southern way of life and that it was unconstitutional. …show more content…
The case made it were schools everywhere could not be segregated and had to treat white and black kids the same.
Even tho the teachers had to treat the kids the same. Some white kids were racist like there parents. The outcome was that blacks got made fun of and called bad names. Sometimes there was even the occasional fight. The case made it where all blacks no matter where they came from they could get somewhat of an education.
The case was between Topeka, Kansas and 20 African American parents. Oliver Brown was one of the parents in the case. He joined the other parents because, his daughter, a third grader, had to walk six blocks to her school bus stop to ride to Monroe Elementary. When Sumner Elementary, an all white school, was only seven blocks from her house. This made him upset that his daughter couldn’t go to the school that was closer just because of the color of her
skin.
The Brown v Board of Education case was one that will always be remembered. Not only did it help blacks get an education it also helped them realize that one day they might be equal to white men and women. They also realized that it would be a long and hard fight but they would bare through it so they weren’t treated as poorly as they were now. This case not only represented hope but, it also represented freedom. The parents in this case knew they could be harmed or worse killed but, they were tired of having their kids walk every day to school because the white schools up the street wouldn’t let them come there just because they were darker than the white kids. It wasn’t even the kids fault they were born with dark skin. It was the white racist who felt that blacks weren’t equal to whites and it’s the kids fault for being black who didn’t choose their fate. The parents who filed the lawsuit were the bravest and least scared of the blacks at the time. They didn’t care if they were hurt or killed as long as there kids had a better future.
