Brown v. Board of Education (1954)
Linda Brown of Topeka, KS was denied access to an all-white elementary school near her home and instead had to walk a dangerous rout to the African American school.
In the Supreme Court, lawyer Thurgood Marshall of the NAACP fought for her right to attend the closer elementary school, claiming that segregation lowered African American's self worth and violated the 14th Amendment.
May 17, 1954: Chief Justice Earl Warren announced the court's decision that made racial segregation illegal in public schools
“Separate educational facilities are inherently unequal.”

Little Rock Nine (1957) Despite the ruling in Brown v. Board of
Education, desegregation in the south moved slowly.

September 25, 1957: President Eisenhower ordered 1,000 troops to the school, and the Little Rock Nine were finally allowed to enter.

Increasing Involvement in Vietnam

Domino theory- Cold war belief that if one nation in south east Asia fell to communism, the rest of south east Asia would fall as well. JFK was determined to change the image
of the U.S because of the failed Bay of Pigs invasion and the building of the Berlin wall, aiding south Vietnam provided the U.S with a chance to assert its power.
![Page 22: The 1960’s By: Erin Emma Cooper Michelle Joe](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022013004/56816500550346895dd76c97/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)

Difficulties Getting Civil Rights Legislation Passed
Martin Luther King Jr. – avid supporter of civil rights, very well respected
African Americans usually voted for candidates based on their stance on civil rights legislation, their party did not matter as much
On one hand, Kennedy was sympathetic to the African Americans who were facing discrimination
On the other, if he supported civil rights legislation, he was afraid that he would lose the support of white democrats in the South
Loss of support would hurt his re-election chances in 1964
Civil Rights Act of 1964
