JIM CROW LAWS

Separate but equal was found… UNCONSTITUTIONAL Brown v. Board of Education of Topeka, Kansas (1954) Linda Brown attempted to integrate a school in Kansas; she was denied entry. The NAACP took the case to the Supreme Court and sued under the EPC. Separate but equal was found… UNCONSTITUTIONAL

After effects White racists did not accept this ruling without a fight, and some turned out to jeer and threaten black students who attended schools that had formerly been for whites only. The most famous and extreme confrontation broke out at Central High School in Little Rock, Arkansas, in 1957. President Eisenhower had to take control of the Arkansas National Guard and order them to protect the black students.
