The NAACP lawyer who led the fight for school integration in Virginia was Oliver Hill. He was a prominent civil rights attorney who played a crucial role in challenging segregation laws and advocating for equal educational opportunities. Hill's efforts contributed significantly to the landmark Supreme Court case Brown v. Board of Education, which ultimately declared racial segregation in public schools unconstitutional. His work was instrumental in advancing civil rights in Virginia and across the United States.
