Facts

The courts held that racial discrimination through segregation in public education is unconstitutional as separate but equal was a violation of equal protection. The Court then set the case for reargument to determine the appropriate remedies. The present opinion only addressed the manner in which the relief granted in Brown I was to be given. The Court held that all provisions of federal, state, and local laws which permit segregation in public schools must be modified.
