The browns were upset because they thought that the school systems were treating their children unfair just because they were of the African american race. They went to the court systems locally and the court said that it might be unfair but it is legal. The Browns took it up to the supreme court and added "how is it fair when obviously our kids are more in danger than theirs because of a larger distance to travel? Our kids have to cross railroad tracks to get to a bus stop to their all black school. When the all white school that our kids could go to would be safer at is right down the street from where we live now."

On May 17, 1954 the supreme court clarified that the "separate but equal" pubic schools for blacks and white was simply unconstitutional. this case serves as a kick off to the civil rights movement, causing educational reforms across the nation and forming legal ways to change and challenge the segregation in all the areas of the national society. Now times have changed. The rights of blacks in whites are equal all around the nation media type="youtube" key="vQrrC0Jb7nI" width="560" height="315"
