Introduction
The Brown vs. the Board of Education
Congress said that segregation was fine as long as white and black facilities were equal, which they were not. But Congress decided to overlook that fact because "blacks were less than people." They did not have the same rights as whites. Segregation was a social normal to everybody, there were separate drinking fountains for the colored and whites.
