The Judiciary

"Yes. Despite the equalization of the schools by "objective" factors, intangible issues foster and maintain inequality. Racial segregation in public education has a detrimental effect on minority children because it is interpreted as a sign of inferiority. The long-held doctrine that separate facilities were permissible provided they were equal was rejected. Separate but equal is inherently unequal in the context of public education. The unanimous opinion sounded the death-knell for all forms of state-maintained racial separation." (Brown v. Board of Education of Topeka)

The verdict for the Brown v. Board of Education of Topeka case was reached when it was agreed that teaching in separate facilities was not considered equal. They agreed that segregating minority children in public schools didn't abide by the laws of 14th amendment. Minority children were not receiving the same education as white children considering that they weren't in the same classroom and were being taught by different teachers.

I chose the Brown v. Board of Education of Topeka case because the verdict paved the way for millions of minority children to get the same education that white children got. They were allowed to sit in the same classrooms and be taught by the same teachers that thought the little white kids. They were given an equal opportunity to a brighter future.
