Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Despite the Supreme Court ruling in Brown v. Board of Education in 1954, which declared segregation in public schools unconstitutional, many schools in the Deep South still refused to integrate. By 1964, ten years later, only around 1 percent of black school-aged children in the Deep South were attending integrated schools with white children. This shows that the implementation of the court's decision was slow and met with significant resistance in this area of the country.
