How did segregation end in publice schools?

The Supreme Court case Brown vs. Board of Education of Topeka, KS, handed down in 1954, overturned the previous Supreme Court ruling that it was constitutional for African-Americans to have separate schools, facilities, etc. so long as they were equal to those of Caucasians. When the Brown vs. Board ruling was handed down, all schools were legally required to be integrated. This process was not quick or smooth, and many schools, especially in the American South, were slow to integrate. For example, one famous case was that of the Little Rock Nine, nine African-American students who enrolled in the previously all-white Central High School in Little Rock, Arkansas in 1957. These nine students were the first students to attempt to integrate in Arkansas, and they faced discrimination in the classroom and picket lines on their way into school. The Arkansas National Guard was called in to ensure the students were safe and able to attend school.


Why is it racist for white people to have an all white school but black people can have an all black school?

Well, it WOULD be racist to have an "all-black school", but luckily there arent any! What you describe as "all-black" schools are known as HBCUs, or Historically Black Colleges and Universities. These schools are not "all-black", but are predominantly black because they were founded in the 1800s to give black students the chance to attend college at a time when they were not allowed admission to the major universities. Over the past few decades, more non-black students have been applying for admission, making these schools more diverse and not "all-black". But, since the population of these schools have historically been predominantly black, they are called HBCUs. If a school were founded today to be "historically black", or "all-black", that would definitely be racist, but that wont happen because the American education system has been desegregated.
