Question

on the civil rights movement?

US history. Society after WWII

Answer 1

in affect, it killed Jim Crow. Brown vs Board of Education Supreme Court case said that the laws were unconstitutinal. the courts mandated that all the states had to integrate their school as soon as possible. seperate but equal was no longer an option. no longer would there be white schools and black schools but one school system for both.. together.

both the little rock crisis and the bus boycott helped to move the civil rights movement along. the boycott was also a nonviolent demonstration on the part of the african americans, demonstrating Dr King's idea. and it worked

Answer 2

Ok the Brown vs. Board of Education decision was a major turning point in Intergration in schools. It overturned the famous Plessie vs. Ferguson case from 1896, stating now that seperate but equal is not equal. The little rock crisis, in which an handful of African Americans attempted to go to an all white school, as allowed by the supreme court, showed how many still do not support intergration. The Governor of Arkansas completely did not allow the kids to go to the high school by sending in the Coast Guard (not sure what he sent). President Eisenhower, who was not for intergration as well, still had a duty to uphold the Supreme Court's decision, so he sent in a group of soldiers to protect and escort the kids around school.

The bus boycott really just speaks for itself. Buses and transportation would lose money and needed to stop this problem started by Rosa Parks, so this was another step towards intergration.
