In Brown v. Board of Education (Topeka, Kansas), the Supreme Court found unconstitutional the establishment of segregated schools to which children were assigned based on race. This presaged the end of the "separate but equal" policy and encouraged blacks in the US to press for the provision of equal status for all US citizens.
