Answer:
In Brown v. Board of Education, the court ruled that separate but equal facilities were unequal simply because of the reasoning behind, and that it still counts as segregation of education based on race. Separate but equal violated the 14th Amendment, which states that "No state shall make or enforce any law which shall abridge the privileges... of citizens...[including people of color]". Therefore, public services (including schools, for this specific case) was to be desegregated.
