Public school segregation was unconstitutional.
One example of resistance to the Brown v. Board of Education decision was the use of "massive resistance" tactics by southern states. For instance, in Virginia, the state government closed public schools in order to avoid integrating them. They then used public funds to support private, segregated schools known as "segregation academies." This was a deliberate attempt to circumvent the Supreme Court's ruling and maintain segregation in education.
