What was the outcome of Brown v. the board of education?

The Supreme Court overturned the Plessy v. Ferguson ruling of 1896, stating that ‘separate but equal’ was no longer in effect. At least technically, this opened up the possibility and the subsequent reality of racial integration in the United States, in the realm of education.

In other words, Brown v. Board meant that schools in the United States could now have black and white students in the same classrooms and same school buildings, enjoying equal access to education.

May God bless you.

As other posters have mentioned, the law before Brown v. Board was that races could be segregated provided the facilities were equal. But in Brown v. Board, the Supreme Ct. ruled that separate was inherently unequal. The Supreme Court received a lot of criticism for its extensive reliance on social science data about how separate facilities made races feel inferior and thus made for poor performance in schools. While many people feel that the case was decided correctly, the Court’s reasoning is a little “iffy” because of the volatility of social science data and the ability to manipulate results. While the Court’s decision has consistently been followed, the reasoning has not. So while it was unconstitutional, the reasons are less important and have not been followed by other courts or even by the Supreme Court itself.

In 1950 the Topeka NAACP, led by McKinley Burnett, set out to organize a legal challenge to an 1879 State law that permitted racially segregated elementary schools in certain cities based on population. For Kansas this would become the 12th case filed in the state focused on ending segregation in public schools. The local NAACP assembled a group of 13 parents who agreed to be plaintiffs on behalf of their 20 children. Following direction from legal counsel they attempted to enroll their children in segregated white schools and all were denied. Topeka operated eighteen neighborhood schools for white children, while African American children had access to only four schools. In February of 1951 the Topeka NAACP filed a case on their behalf. Although this was a class action it was named for one of the plaintiffs Oliver Brown.
