Oliver Brown V. Board of Education of Topeka was an important Supreme Court case in which the court stated that state laws that established that racial segregation of children in public schools were unconstitutional.
The verdict of this case in 1954 was that the “separate but equal doctrine” for public education violated the U.SA constitution.
As a result of the verdict, and knowing that the Supreme Court’s decision in the case didn’t end the segregation issue, black people (mostly) still had in mind that they had to continue fighting for equal rights. And that is how one year later, in 1955, Rosa Parks (A black seamstress person) denied to give up her set o a white man on a bus. After the Rosa Parks’ event, lots of boycotts were organized to fight for equal civil rights. This act helped initiate the civil rights movement in the U.S.A.
