布朗诉教育委员会案:1954年的一桩法律案件,导致美国最高法院的一项裁决将对黑人和白人儿童的单独教育定为非法。 CultureThe law case was held after a school for white children in Topeka, Kansas, refused to accept a black girl called Linda Brown. The case led to a decision of the US Supreme Court that made segregation in public schools illegal. The decision ended the idea of 'separate but equal' schools for whites and African Americans, and encouraged the civil rights movement.compare Plessy v Ferguson
