The Supreme Court ruling in Brown v. Board of Education (1954) declared that racial segregation in public schools was unconstitutional, effectively overturning the "separate but equal" doctrine established in Plessy v. Ferguson. This landmark decision galvanized the Civil Rights Movement, leading to increased efforts to dismantle segregation across various sectors of society. It also set a precedent for challenging discriminatory laws, ultimately contributing to broader social and legislative changes aimed at achieving racial equality in the United States.

Brown v. Board of Education was a landmark Supreme Court case in which it was decided black and white students should no longer be segregated. Brown II revisited the case with regard to how quickly the schools should change their procedures of segregation. In a ruling known as Brown II, the Supreme Court ordered the immediate implementation of Brown v. Board of Education.
The Supreme Court established "separate but equal" in Plessy v Fergusun in 1896 to match the ruling of Brown v Board of Education. It was ruled constitutional because the Brown v Board of Education had already started the desegregation rule.
