Chief Justice Warren didn't make an anonymous (meaning without revealing names) decision, the Supreme Court reached a unanimous decision (meaning they all agreed) in Brown v. Board of Education, (1954).

The justices wanted to take a strong, united stance against segregation by issuing a single opinion signed by everyone. This sent a clear message to those who resisted desegregation that "separate but equal" was "inherently unequal" and would no longer be sanctioned by the Supreme Court.

The decision also opened the door to challenges of Jim Crow laws, and other discriminatory practices, with the expectation the Court would dismantle the institution of racism (or at least try).
