Lesson 3: School Desegregation

Brown vs Board of education closing argument reenactment - posted from Sebastian, FL

PBS has a video reenacting Thurgood Marshall's closing statement during the case Brown Vs Board of education.


Brown v. Board info/Re-enactment - posted from ASOTIN, WA

Found we needed more info on Brown v Board of Education. USCourts.gov has a PDF "activity package" on the particular cases that helped build the case for Brown, and includes a reenactment reading for students. Though it's geared for a classroom, we did it just fine with reading aloud and discussion. It spurred a lot more questions and therefore research into how each court works up to the USSC, particular vocab terms and phrases, and constitutional rights and interpretation of said rights.
