2, Discuss how the Supreme Court, in the Brown case, set aside the Plessy precedent and declared school segregation inherently unconstitutional because it violated the equal protection clause of the Fourteenth Amendment.
3, Explain how integration in practice moved slowly, particularly in the South.
