In the case of Brown vs. the Board of Education on May 17th 1954, the Supreme Court decided that the Constitution of the United States must guarantee equal education for all American citizens.
In this landmark case, schools were desegregated across the South and in the breath and width of the United States. Fifty-five years later, however, we find American education is still sporadically separate and unquestionably unequal. (Wilmington Journal)
