Brown vs. Board of Education, In Pursuit of Freedom and Equality

In 1954, the Supreme Court ruling in Brown vs. Topeka Board of Education finally ended school segregation across America. Today, few people realize that African Americans in Kansas fought segregation as early as 1880, nearly a century before the Brown victory. This striking exhibit explores the historic struggle for equality through education, placing the Brown case in the context of earlier Kansas lawsuits, opposition to "Jim Crow" laws, and national events. Produced by the Brown Foundation for Educational Equality, Excellence and Research with support from the Kansas Humanities Council.
