The case of Brown v Board of Education in Topeka Kansas resolved the issue of spereate but equal schools by overturning Plessy v Ferguson ruling, and allowing blacks and whites to go to the same schools.
The plaintiffs, with help from the NAACP, argued that separate schools could never really be equal for several reasons. Their most important reason was that merely having blacks and white go to separate schools sent black children the message that they were inferior, and thus, not equal. The Supreme court ruled unanimously in the plaintiffs' favor, desegregated schools, and struck down the "separate but equal" doctrine because it denied the students equal educational opportunities.
