Previous school desegregation cases were based on arguments that used the inadequate equipment and buildings of segregated black schools as their premise of unfairness. Brown vs. Board of Education, on the other hand, argued that even if the facilities were equal in all other ways, it was the segregation that was the greatest injustice and in direct violation of the Fourteenth Amendment.
Two important cases were decided by the US Supreme Court in 1954: Brown v. Board of Education and the lesser known Bolling v. Sharpe in the District of Columbia. In both cases, segregation by race was found unconstitutional.
There was no single case that ended segregation as a whole; the Civil Rights Movement gained ground a little at a time over the course of many cases, and with the assistance of long overdue legislation like the Civil Rights Act of 1964, 1968, etc.The case most often identified with the end of segregation is Brown v. Board of Education, (1954), where the US Supreme Court declared the "separate but equal" doctrine affirmed in Plessy v. Ferguson, (1896) unconstitutional under the Fourteenth Amendment Equal Protection Clause. The decision in Brown only dealt with segregation in the public schools, not in every aspect of life, but it laid a foundation for future decisions and laws that eventually ended legal segregation.For more information, see Related Questions, below.
James Farmer significantly contributed to the civil rights movement by co-founding the Congress of Racial Equality (CORE) in 1942, which played a pivotal role in promoting nonviolent protest and civil disobedience against racial segregation. Through CORE, he helped organize key events such as the Freedom Rides, which challenged segregation in interstate bus travel. Farmer's efforts were instrumental in raising awareness and mobilizing support for civil rights initiatives across the United States.

In other cases, it's the secrets you behold that can save, or destroy lives of others singularly, or in multitudes, whether figuratively or literally. Implide powers is in a sense who ever can win over the masses or better decieves the masses, has less limited powers.

Plessy v. Ferguson and Brown v. Board of Education
In the years leading up to Brown v. Board of Education, the Supreme Court had a mixed record on segregation cases. In some instances, it upheld the doctrine of "separate but equal," such as in the 1896 case, Plessy v. Ferguson, which established the "separate but equal" principle. However, there were a few cases, like Sweatt v. Painter (1950) and McLaurin v. Oklahoma State Regents (1950), where the Court began to question the implementation of segregation in higher education. These cases set the stage for the landmark decision in Brown v. Board of Education (1954), which declared segregation in public schools unconstitutional.

The question raised in the Plessy v Ferguson and Brown v Board of Education Supreme Court cases was that of racial segregation. Is it okay, and if so, how should it be done? In Plessy (the earlier case), it was determined that segregation was okay as long as the facilities and education were equal. In Brown (the later case), it was decided that legalized segregation is *inherently* unequal, and it was forbidden.
