6、 American grade 3 student Linda Brown had to walk a long way through a railway yard to get to her school in Topeka, Kansas. There was another school closer to home ―but Linda was black and this school was for white children only.
Then her father made a decision that ended in a court case which changed US society forever. It celebrated its 50th anniversary last Monday.
The decision was simple: Linda was to study in the nearby all-white school. After the school refused her, Mr. Brown filed a lawsuit against the local board of education.
The case, now known as “Brown versus the Board of Education”, made it all the Way to the US Supreme Court. On May 17, 1954, the court declared that “Separate educational facilities are unequal.” This historic ruling ended racial segregation (隔離) by allowing black children to go to the same schools as white children.
The court said that the US Constitution guaranteed “equal protection of the laws”, and this meant equal treatment for blacks and whims. This overturned a 19th century ruling that permitted “separate but equal” racial segregation.
Thanks to the Brown ruling, from the late 1950s segregation was ended on a much wider scale. Buses, beaches, jobs, housing, voting―black people had equal rights to white people in most areas of society. The ruling also helped improve rights for women and the disabled.
Congresswoman Eleanor Holmes Norton said: “Brown was the most important court decision in US history.” In other countries, these problems may have been solved through violence, she added.
To mark the 50th anniversary of the Brown decision, a museum was opened at Linda Brown’s old school. Visitors get to walk through the “Tunnel of Courage”, in which they are surrounded by photos of shouting crowds and barking dogs. This gives them a taste of the hardships that Brown faced at the whites-only school.
1.Mr. Brown decided to sent her daughter to the whites-only school because _______.
A.he hated the board of education B.it is unfair for their black kids
C.the school is close to his home D.he wanted to change US society
