In 1952, 17 states in the United States had laws that mandated racial segregation in public schools. This segregation was a result of Jim Crow laws, which enforced racial discrimination and separation, particularly in the Southern states. The landmark Supreme Court case Brown v. Board of Education in 1954 would later challenge and ultimately overturn these segregation laws.
