(b) What facts were presented to show that separate schools could not be equal ? - What did the U.S. Supreme Court say was the reason for its Brown I decision ?
- What impact did the decision in Brown I have on the doctrine of "separate but equal" as a way to satisfy the Equal Protection Clause ?
What issue did the U.S. Supreme Court consider in Brown II and how did they resolve that issue? - Consider that the federal district courts supervised the desegregation of local schools for many years, in one case for 47 years. With the wisdom of hindsight, was Brown II a wise decision ? Why or why not ?
