Decision
As a final saying, Chief Warren said,
“Segregation of white and colored children in public schools has a detrimental effect upon the colored children. The impact is greater when it has the sanction of the law, for the policy of separating the races is usually interpreted as denoting the inferiority of the Negro group...Any language in contrary to this finding is rejected. We conclude that in the field of public education the doctrine of 'separate but equal' has no place. Separate educational facilities are inherently unequal.”
Finally, on May 31, 1955, the Supreme Court made a final decision in favor of Brown. Warren stated that segregation in public schools was unconstitutional and the Plessy doctrine did not protect African American's rights. All states had to have their schools integrated, but there was no set deadline.
After the case, the decision that was made at the court was mostly applied to schools in the South. More integrated schools appeared throughout Topeka. Black and whites started to come together in the South gradually. After three years after the Supreme Court decision, all of Topeka’s schools were integrated. There were no conflicts in the integrated classrooms afterwards. When the Court favored in Brown, Linda and 12 other plaintiffs’ children were admitted to an integrated public school. Even till mid 1950s, Americans were still divided and uncomfortable with the issue of racial equality. African Americans were able to freely enjoy their freedom and break free from the struggles they had.
