Why did Oliver Brown challenge 'separate but equal'?
Oliver Brown and twelve other parents were recruited by the NAACP to help challenge racial segregation in the Topeka, Kansas public schools.Brown was one of five cases the NAACP Legal Defense and Education Fund brought to the courts simultaneously, to demonstrate how pervasive racism and segregation were, and to increase their chances of being granted a hearing by the US Supreme Court.Contrary to popular belief, the case didn't start because Linda Brown was unable to enroll in her neighborhood "all white" elementary school, although her rejection, as stated in the case, is a matter of fact. The petitioners in Brown, including the nominal plaintiff Oliver Brown, were contacted by local NAACP lawyers and instructed to attempt enrolling their children in the segregated "white" school. All parties knew the African-American children would be denied admission, which was the NAACP's preferred outcome. Had the Topeka, Kansas, schools integrated on request, they would have had to recruit plaintiffs from a less cooperative school district.Case Citation:Brown v. Board of Education, 347 US 483 (1954)
