The Brown v. Board of Education Supreme Court decision in 1954 allowed African American children to attend integrated public schools, effectively ending the legal doctrine of "separate but equal." This landmark ruling deemed racial segregation in public education unconstitutional, affirming that segregated schools were inherently unequal. It marked a significant step forward in the Civil Rights Movement, promoting equality and challenging systemic racism in education.
