Just eight years after a landmark case based the race-based segregation of public schools was finalized in the U.S. Supreme Court (SCOTUS), a U.S. District Court lawsuit was filed against a local East Coast public education authority, which had gotten away with continually segregating its schools.
The 1954 Brown v. Board of Education SCOTUS case (based in the U.S. state of Kansas) ultimately ended with the High Court siding with the plaintiff. This led to the American federal government’s inevitable ban that outlawed public school segregation along racial lines. This applied to U.S.-based education authorities in every state, county, and city.
