Brown v. Board of Education National Historical Park commemorates the U.S. Supreme Court decision that ended racial segregation in public schools. On May 17, 1954, the court announced its unanimous opinion in the case of Oliver L. Brown et al. v. the Board of Education of Topeka et al.: "We conclude in the field of public education the doctrine of 'separate but equal' has no place. Separate educational facilities are inherently unequal." Self-Guided Tour Auditorium - Race and the American Creed The Road to Brown v. Board of Education The Legacy of Brown v.
