AMERICAN CIVIL RIGHTS FOUNDATION v. BERKELEY UNIFIED SCHOOL DISTRICT
Racial integration of America's public schools began with Brown v. Board of Education (1954) 347 U.S. 483, when the United States Supreme Court ruled that state-imposed segregation in education that intentionally discriminated against African Americans on the basis of their race was unconstitutional. Half a century after Brown¸ some educators have gone beyond removing state-imposed segregation, and have implemented affirmative policies fostering social diversity in their schools. The question confronting courts today is whether these new policies go too far and themselves improperly discriminate on the basis of race.
