The collection of cases included in the Brown v. Board of Education decision was the culmination of years of legal groundwork laid by the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP) in its work to end segregation. None of the cases would have been possible without individuals the Attorneys, Plaintiffs, and Justices who were courageous enough to take a stand against the segregated system.
