Brown V. Board of Education of Topeka (1)

               The decision was made base on the legal structure on which separation rested, the ideas of “separation but equal” which started to break. As a result residents of color (living in Topeka, Kansas) starting filing law suit for the segregation of not allowing children of color attend a white school, (not treating the children with equality). So, the question brought to court involved the Equal Protection law of the 14^th Amendment that questions “Does Segregation of Children in Public Schools Solely”? To get a final decision it took time and trials. Finally, the law took effect and the 14^th amendment was placed into practice.

             I choose this case because it focused on the Civil Right and 14^th amendment. Also, showed just how African Americans were segregation back then but, to this day there is more to say about that. For instance, since the post 1965 many Latinos migrated to the United States, many as refugees and/or unaccompanied minors. In which nowadays face barriers in school because of their culture, religion, and language. I believe that anyone has the right for a good education and schools system should not have separations because of cultures, colors, ethnicity or classism. Even more so, this case wasn’t fighting for adult right/equality rather for, children. How do you keep children from being “free?” I believe that segregation could bring a lot of psychological problems for example inferiority, they may see school differently, identify and aspiration could be a matter.
