Brown V Board of Education

The Brown V. Board of Education case brought together 3 separate states. It is said that by law the schools were segregated between black and white schools. The schools for black children were poor, while the schools for white children were better and got better education. Brown is a parent of a black child who goes to the schools. He claims that having a law that forces children to be segregated violates the their 14th amendment rights. 

The opposite side believed that white kids were farther ahead than black kids for education. They claim that colored students would not understand the concepts being taught in class. Also, during this time many blacks did not know how to properly read or write, so the students would need extra attention to be educated on reading and writing. A majority of white students already knew how to read and write, making them ahead of the black students who do not know. 

Through my viewpoint, now this is seen as wrong and unfair. There is no equality or respect towards African Americans' trying to get an education. I could see how people in that time would be viewed as black students being less. The law that forced children to be segregated does violate their 14th amendment rights and the kids should not be separated in two different schools. Unfortunately, back then people did not see it as a big deal for colored children to be treated in schools the way they were.
