Brown V. Board of Education: A Civil Rights Milestone and Its Troubled Legacy Paperback - 2002
by James T. Patterson
IPatterson shrewdly explores provocative issues that still swirl around "Brown v. Board of Education," including whether the decision touched off the modern civil rights movement and how useful court-ordered busing and affirmative action have been in removing racial segregation. 36 photos.
Summary
First line
Listening to black people who dared publicly to challenge racism-and to optimistic white liberals-in the 1940s and early 1950s, we can see how they imagined the approach of a new, more egalitarian world of race relations in the United States: A black American corporal, 1945: I spent four years in the Army to free a bunch of Dutchmen and Frenchmen, and I'm hanged if I'm going to let the Alabama version of the Germans kick me around when I get home.
