Social Problems and Public Policy
Brown v. Board of Education was a landmark Supreme Court case decided in 1954 that declared racial segregation in public schools unconstitutional. This decision challenged the long-standing doctrine of 'separate but equal' established in Plessy v. Ferguson, marking a critical turning point in the fight against racial discrimination and setting the stage for future anti-discrimination policies and social movements advocating for civil rights.
