The symposium explored the challenges of advancing race relations in schools and society, particularly the continuing significance of the 1954 Supreme Court decision Brown vs. Board of Education. Freedman and Gregory’s session examined the context of the Brown (1954) decision, legal challenges that emerged as a result and the extent to which efforts toward educational equity have or have not succeeded since.
