| Description: |
School integration occurred through the efforts of countless men and women, who took their ideals about America and what it represents and worked to make them acceptable. This book presents the story of the legal campaign launched by the NAACP civil rights organization and a black lawyer named Thurgood Marshall, and how it changed history forever. |
| Synopsis: |
Today, integration is as much a part of America's public school system as Friday night football and complaints about cafeteria food. But America has not always opened the doors of its schools to all races. School integration occurred through the tireless efforts of countless men and women - some white, many black - who took their ideals and dreams about America and what it represents and worked to make them not only the law of the land, but acceptable to the vast majority of citizens. Here is the story of the relentless legal campaign launched by the NAACP civil rights organization and a persistent black lawyer named Thurgood Marshall, and how it changed history forever. "Brown v. Board of Education" was one of the most important Supreme Court decisions of the 20th century. |
