the civil rights movement

Answer:

The civil rights movement

Explanation:

The decision Brown v. Board of Education of Topeka was an important decision from the US Supreme Court in 1954 that ruled that racial segregation in public schools violated the 14th Amendment of the US Constitution. The Court ruled that the states cannot deny equal protection of the laws to any person and that separate educational facilities were inherently unequal. This decision was made during the Civil Rights Movement and was a huge change in the jurisprudence of the Court.
