Question

A constitutional scholar has called the Court's ruling in the Brown case "the Supreme Court's most important decision of the twentieth century." Why do you think he would make this claim?

Answer 1

This claim would be accurate because it was the most successful leading cause to the equality of today's society.

Answer 2

As a result of Brown v. Board of Education's ruling, racial segregation came to be considered a violation of the Equal Protection Clause of the Fourteenth Amendment to the United States Constitution. This ruling opened the way for racial integration and achieving civil rights for African Americans.
