The Supreme Court used Brown v. Board of Education to address the constitutionality of racial segregation in public schools. The case challenged the "separate but equal" doctrine established in Plessy v. Ferguson, demonstrating that segregated educational facilities were inherently unequal and violated the Equal Protection Clause of the Fourteenth Amendment. The Court's unanimous decision in 1954 declared that racial segregation in public schools was unconstitutional, marking a significant step in the Civil Rights Movement and setting a precedent for future desegregation efforts.
