Source A
The National Association for the Advancement of Colored
People (NAACP) attorneys, including the African-American
Thurgood Marshall, began a legal strategy designed to end
segregation in education. They developed a series of cases
challenging segregation in graduate and professional
schools. They believed that the battle against segregation
had to begin at the highest academic level. After
establishing a series of legal precedents, the NAACP
attorneys planned to launch an all out attack against the
‘separate but equal’ doctrine in primary and secondary
schools. The strategy was successful. The 1950 McLaurin v
Oklahoma decision ruled that internal separation in
classrooms and cafeterias was unconstitutional. In Sweatt
v Painter, 1950, the Supreme Court said that the
maintenance of separate law schools for blacks and whites
was unconstitutional. Then a group of courageous black
families, encouraged and supported by the NAACP, made
an attack on segregation in schools.
