In the Southwest, was the goal to end segregation in schools and any other places where minorities were not welcomed? For example, the Brown vs. the Board of Education that paved the way for education change in schools. The case ruled that it was unconstitutional to not allow others in schools because of their skin. It opened the door for the Westminster School District vs. Mendez case that states it was illegal to deny children of Mexican and Latin descent education. Did this particular case changed the direction of desegregation in Arizona and encouraged the civil rights movement for minorities?
