Important Rulings on School
Segregation & the Impact Today

The 1954 ruling in Brown v. Board of Education ended school segregation. Before that, the 1947 case Mendez v. Westminster fought for integration in California. This large research project facilitates students delving deeply into how systemic segregation was in the mid-20th century, and highlights Latino and African-American contributions to the civil rights movement.
