Warren Court In The 1960's
The Warren Court
The 1960’s was an evolution of change in American history. When Earl Warren became Chief Justice of Supreme Court in 1953 it made the most dramatic changes and held a far more liberal view than any other Supreme Court before. Some of its most important rulings were on African-American civil liberties. The Supreme Court changed American law on segregation in schools, criminal procedure, and privacy rights. Before the Warren Court the American law treated blacks as second class citizens, and by the end of Justice Warren's term racial equality was inevitable.
The Warren Court had several legal court cases dealing with civil rights. The liberal court passed many laws that set in motion the more civil rights for African Americans.
