- The landmark case Brown v. Board of Education declared that racial segregation in public schools was unconstitutional. However, for most black and white families, the decision was met with resistance and a court mandate didn’t mean things were going to change.
Politicians and officials throughout the country found ways to ensure full-on school integration never happened. From protests, to throwing bricks, to blocking entrances at schools, the new law of the land was met with sharp resistance. Even as the NAACP intervened and busing orders were implemented, integrating schools seemed more like a wish than a sure thing.
In this episode of Black History In Two Minutes or So hosted by Henry Louis Gates Jr., with additional commentary from Hasan Jeffries of Ohio State University, we take a look at a this monumental case. While it sought to provide access and equality for black kids across the country, decades later, it still come up short.
Black History in Two Minutes (or so) is a 2x Webby Award winning series.

How bad is it for members of each race to freely go to schools tailored to their own needs rather than endure the conflict of the integrated one?
Nice and succinct. Our country was ill-equipped for implementing desegregation, but hindsight is 20-20 and I appreciate the brave leaders who did their best and I believe the country was made better in spite of the stumbles and fumbles ..thank you!
Carla Linton. I don't believe in segregation. I believe in integration.
great video, thank you.
This is a very bad video. I was brought here because of homework and i am heartbroken
It’s not a bad video. It’s a bad part of human history
Kids performed better all around before integration
