Answer:

Linda Brown

Explanation:

In 1951, Oliver Brown sued the Board of Education of Topeka because his daughter Linda Brown was refused entry into Topeka all white school which was closer to their house, thus safer and more equipped. He sought for the separate but equal law instituted in 1896 to be made unconstitutional and for his daughter to be allowed to go to an all white school. In 1954, in a landmark verdict, the United States Supreme Court declared the separate but equal law unconstitutional as it contravenes the equal protection clause of the 14th amendment.
