  The 1954 Brown v Board of Education ruling is a watershed event in the fight against racial segregation in the US. Examining how our historical understanding of segregation has evolved since then, this book suggests that the Brown decree and the civil rights movement have accomplished more than the hard statistics of black progress can reveal.
