"Segregated schools get them ready for the segregation they will encounter as adults." Sounds awfully similar to the logic the high school I went to (and probably plenty of others) used to justify their cookie-cutter curriculum. "Forcing you to do things you're not interested in will get you ready for being forced to do things you don't want to do as an adult."
Did you manage to build an adult life where you don't have to do things you don't want to? Deliberate injustice as preparation for indeliberate injustice is still a worthless argument, but I think the description of adulthood is depressingly accurate.
@@taintedtaylor2586 "mixed" ? Judaism is not a "race" or DNA... King David came from convert s. Lenin mother was not Jewish not did he convert therefore he is not a Jew. We have Jews from Russia Europe Middle east Afrika Asia...
"Segregation is already the way alive" lol Reminds me when people argue "it's always been this way and should stay this way" It just screams lazy and close minded. That logic applies to very few things. Usually insignificant and inconsequential things but people like to apply it bigger issues. I hear it a lot unfortunately.
I know I shouldn't find it as amusing as I do but whenever I think of this decision now all I'm going to think about is that hospital visit "Hey Warren thanks for visiting me" "It's okay buddy how're you holding up?" "Oh okay, doctors say stress related work caused it" "Oh? Well you know how you were planning on voting against Brown?" "I SWEAR TO GOD WARREN!"
The sad fact that really blows my mind. Quite a significant number of school districts in the South straight up disbanded and shut down their schools rather than integrate. Like they literally said they would rather their children become truanced and not get an education then let them go to school with black kids.
Hey! this is pathetic. everyone has the right to education regardless of their colour, class or background. discrimination and inequality just lead to pain. Thanks for the video :)
A few notes on this one: 1.) Warren was not the FORMER Governor of California when Ike appointed him Chief Justice of the US Supreme Court. He was the CURRENT Governor of California. 2.) As you might imagine, Robert Jackson ended up dying shortly after the ruling. By the time Brown II was decided, he had been replaced by John Marshall Harlan II. 3.) Linda Brown ended up running for Kansas's Second District in the US House of Representatives in 1996. However, she was beaten in the Republican primary by former distance-running pro Jim Ryun.
What a great decision! I go to a high school that was founded around 1889 and was formerly whites only. I am Hispanic, and never would have been able to attend, and would have had to go to one one town over! I’m really happy this ended up the way it did, but it scares me how recent it really was
There are after all only five possible outcomes in a full panel ... 9-0, 8-1, 7-2, 6-3 and 5-4, then it just turns around... so 9-0 isn't that rare a decision. Opening Arguments did have a rough statistic on it once and i think it was something between 25 and 30% as it's a pretty common case when the law situation isn't all that controversial... Next common split was IMO already the almost complete split 5-4, you know... for the TRULY controversial decisions...
@@Ugly_German_Truths you forgot that some of them could be ill or have a stroke so it is posible to have 8-0 7-1 6-2 5-3 4-4 or even more results if more are unable to perform
Robert Jackson being very ill and still somehow showing up is a wildly interesting story as an aside. He was gravely ill, dealing with various medical ailments, suffered a heart attack in March 1954, showed up on that day in May 1954 and died in October at only age 61. When Mr. Beat says the media was shocked to see him for that reporters' meeting, he is not fibbing. The media was truly an utterly shocked to see him given how bad his condition was. Fun fact, Jackson is the last Supreme Court justice without a law degree, he was admitted to the bar via internship/apprenticeship which used to be more common.
Jackson's clerk at the time of Brown was one William Rehnquist, who actually prepared a brief against Brown before Jackson changed his mind. This came back to haunt Rehnquist, though he claimed he was only writing to defend Jackson's views at the time, which was kind of an obligation for a clerk.

Segregated schools, arguably, still happen as a result of redlining in many cities. Intercity schools can be minority dominant and will always have worse funding, facilities, too few teachers, etc as a direct result of these schools being ineffective many kids go underdeveloped education wise.

Imagine that. Being able to change a Supreme Court Justice's mind in order to change the course of America's future. We need more flexible judges on the highest bench willing to be convinced. But that's about as likely as Clarence Thomas properly disclosing a lavish trip.
Thanks so much! I actually already did Marbury v. Madison way back in the day, but I am thinking about updating it...ruclips.net/video/m1VAmWxpLjU/видео.html
It still baffles me today that separating people on their color was only dealt with 50-60 years ago. A lot of Americans grew up in segregation are still around today.
Huh, that former black only school looks really good and fancy. I thought it would be some rundown building but this looks better than the school I went to in Denmark.
“The South resisted”- yet today, sadly, NY schools are actually the most segregated of any state! School segregation is still a huge issue today, even if it’s not legally binding, many schools are super segregated today.
Just remember in states like Florida, Texas, Alabama, and many more this historic speech and the events that precluded it will no longer be taught to school children becasue it could be classified as CRT AKA uncomfortable truths that spark conversation. Imagine an entire generation of American children that will never know about their nations true history all because their parents don't want to deal with the questions they may have about life. We have truly become soft as a country. People ask whats killing our nation? Well, our refusual to learn from the past certainly doesnt help.
I can’t imagine a world without this ruling, and only to think that this happened after the 1950’s is even more appalling. As someone who tries to understand both sides of any argument; I fail to see how segregation does anything more than dehumanize, debilitate, and cripple society as a whole. Wouldn’t it be in everyone’s best interest to allow everyone equal education? How would crippling a percentage of your population make your country productive in societal and economic development?
I love the video and channel! Ik I get hate for saying it but my father was against the decision on Libertarian grounds that he viewed the ruling unconsitutional due to it infringing on the right to freedom of association & exclusion. Which I always found fastinating it is never brought up on this topic.
One of the horrible moments after this, of course, one that really caused the Civil Rights movement to kick into high gear, was not only the horrific torture and murder of 14 year old Emmet Till, but the acquittal despite the evidence of those who carried it out (Roy Bryant and J. W. Milham) by a Mississippi Court (with the all white Jury taking just an hour and a half to come to a verdict). It shocked not just most in the United States, but it drew international attention to what was going on
If any, CJ Warren was a skilled politician. He already has the majority of the Court to side with Brown but knew in order to send a strong message, he must convince the entire Court. Stories go he revised the text of the decision several times over to assuage the concerns of some Justices. If not a CJ, he would have been an amazing US President.
Speaking of Education… Mr.Beat! I have a Supreme Court decision recommendation! San Antonio vs Rodriguez. The 14th Amendment says that everyone is entitled to their rights and are protected equally under the law…however when it comes to education, it is supposedly not a right. Therefore it is constitutional for people of higher wealth, to get better education. I’m probably doing this very badly, but please go do a video on this! It’s an absolutely huge ruling yet no one knows about it!
Fantastic stuff, its a shame how many channels ya just don't see in recommended thanks to +Political Junkie for the link. keep up the vids new subscriber
Interesting side note: Derrick Ball, a black law professor at Harvard and elsewhere, worked to desegregate schools in Mississippi for the NAACP in 1959. By 1970, he was questioning the NAACP well-intentioned policy for de-segregating schools. (Wiki Derrick Bell: "Later in life, Bell questioned the approach of integration they took in these school cases. Throughout the South, often the winning rulings and the following desegregation caused white flight, ultimately keeping the schools segregated. Later, as an academic, these practical results led him to conclude that "racism is so deeply rooted in the makeup of American society that it has been able to reassert itself after each successive wave of reform aimed at eliminating it.") Bell saw these issues through the lens of realpolitik. His textbook, "Race, Racism, and American Law" on the subject (published in 1970) triggered the development of Critical Race Theory. NOTE WELL, MAGA-HATTERS: Critical Race theory began as a critique of the well-intentioned (though naive, Bell would say) folks at the NAACP. Bell was questioning liberal assumptions, liberal pieties.
Schools today are more segregated than they were before Brown v Board, just fyi The decision has been gutted so many times it's de facto overturned at this point
I know that Earl Warren was the Chief Justice of the US Supreme Court during the US Supreme Court Case Brown v. Board of Education and Brown v. Board of Education is One of the Best Supreme Court Cases in American History and Brown v. Board of Education is One of the Most Important Supreme Court Cases in American History because it paved and cause integration in public schools and it Ended School Segregation in Public Schools and Earl Warren was an American Lawyer and Earl Warren was the 14th Chief Justice of the US Supreme Court from October 5, 1953 to June 23, 1969 and Earl Warren was Appointed by President Dwight D. Eisenhower and from October 5, 1953 to June 23, 1969 was 15 Years and Earl Warren was the Chief Justice of the US Supreme Court for 15 Years and Earl Warren had a Job for 15 Years and Earl Warren Retired from his Job as the Chief Justice of the US Supreme Court in 1969 and it’s Amazing when someone has a Job for 15 Years as an Adult.
Hello, could you please do am updated video on Marbury v Madison? Marbury is the most important case in our history, deserves to be re-done! It would be pretty cool to see a video on Boumediene v. Bush as well? Please and thank you, I truly enjoy watching all of these videos! You are great!!! :)
+Daniela Mendez Yeah, I definitely plan on redoing Marbury v. Madison. Thanks for watching the series. My Patreon supporters get first dibs on video suggestions, though, so they keep me busy in the mean time.
Jackson's heart attack was NOT mild; he died of a second attack seven months later. Another Justice, Stanley Reed, practiced segregation in his personal life, and even refused to attend the Court's Christmas party, because the black staff members were invited. Reed even hired outside law clerks to draft a dissent. After Earl Warren secured Jackson's vote, he went to Reed and said, "Stan, you're all alone on this." Reed capitulated and made it unanimous. As for Jackson, he deplored segregation, calling it "Hitler's creed." What troubled him was overruling a precedent of more than fifty years' standing.
Great Video, as usual, Mr. Beat. I can't believe that it took so many years to, technically, get Separate But Equal overturned. Let me know what you think
As a Irish person who has a lot of respect for America and it's people in my opinion this is the most important decision that the Supreme Court has ever made and I have learned a lot from Johnny Cash, Jimmy Carter, and Elvis Presley have have thought me that not all of Americans from the Deep South hated Black African Americans.
This video taught me that I was born on the day Brown v Board of Education was settled May 17, 1954 very cool. St Luke's Hospital, K.C. MO but lived in Prairie Village KS. There has been so much change in 2020 since the murder of George Floyd. GREAT VIDEO IDEA coming up. May I say it was a joy seeing the history of, J. C. Nichols, segregation abuse become the talk of the town in a bad way. We got the Fountain renamed during the protest. It was about time. Sorry I ramble, can't spell, and believe the coma was created to denote a pause. Paying attention and asking questions would have been good for me.
Common sense requires a certain amount of leeway there. Obviously, those places need to be segregated, but they can't be entirely equal either, or you'd have to put urinals in the women's bathrooms and restrict the number of women's bathrooms to the same number as men's rooms in all public places. It would also be awkward to have condoms and pads sold in the bathrooms of both genders.
As a person who half black and half white, I always wonder what the public's perception of my mix would be during that time period. I'm not simply black or white and my skin is white passing though my features are of African decent. Would white supremacists still try to kill me? Would the black community still stand with me or firmly against (like how Malcom x was "anti-whites helping the black cause")? Basically, It would suck but idek if I'd be safe from either group.
Nearly every racist white group would see mixed people as bad. And I think based on biographies of the era black people had mixed feelings towards mixed families. So you'd have most likely been worse off (with no extra rights and being less welcome in black communities). Except if you are white passing (ie look white) at which point you could possibly integrated into white communities (and so have more rights than someone who was only black) but that's not a given.
It's been a year, but I'll answer your questions. Yes, you would have still been discriminated against according to the "one drop rule". The black community would have still stood with you. They were the ones fighting against segregation.

Thanks so much! I actually already did Marbury v. Madison way back in the day, but I am thinking about updating it...ruclips.net/video/m1VAmWxpLjU/видео.html
It still baffles me today that separating people on their color was only dealt with 50-60 years ago. A lot of Americans grew up in segregation are still around today.
Trivia tidbit: the song “Black And White”(most famously performed by Three Dog Night in 1972)was written as a direct response to this case.
Rest in peace Linda (1942-2018)
I didn't know that it was a unanimous decision.
Huh, that former black only school looks really good and fancy. I thought it would be some rundown building but this looks better than the school I went to in Denmark.
“The South resisted”- yet today, sadly, NY schools are actually the most segregated of any state! School segregation is still a huge issue today, even if it’s not legally binding, many schools are super segregated today.
Thank you so much!!!!!
Just remember in states like Florida, Texas, Alabama, and many more this historic speech and the events that precluded it will no longer be taught to school children becasue it could be classified as CRT AKA uncomfortable truths that spark conversation. Imagine an entire generation of American children that will never know about their nations true history all because their parents don't want to deal with the questions they may have about life. We have truly become soft as a country. People ask whats killing our nation? Well, our refusual to learn from the past certainly doesnt help.
Fun fact: the phrase "deliberate speed" was borrowed from the 1890 British poem "The Hound of Heaven" written by Francis Thompson
I can’t imagine a world without this ruling, and only to think that this happened after the 1950’s is even more appalling. As someone who tries to understand both sides of any argument; I fail to see how segregation does anything more than dehumanize, debilitate, and cripple society as a whole. Wouldn’t it be in everyone’s best interest to allow everyone equal education? How would crippling a percentage of your population make your country productive in societal and economic development?
I love the video and channel!
Ik I get hate for saying it but my father was against the decision on Libertarian grounds that he viewed the ruling unconsitutional due to it infringing on the right to freedom of association & exclusion. Which I always found fastinating it is never brought up on this topic.
Yeah that was also the common against the Civil Rights Act of 1964. Thanks for watching! :)
Mr. Beat Yes! Thank you for your awesome content!
Chief Justice Earl Warren and the Interstate Highway System are the best legacies of Ike’s presidency
I'm from Little Rock and the school is still a school today and a part time museum
Have yet to visit but it's on my bucket list!
One of the horrible moments after this, of course, one that really caused the Civil Rights movement to kick into high gear, was not only the horrific torture and murder of 14 year old Emmet Till, but the acquittal despite the evidence of those who carried it out (Roy Bryant and J. W. Milham) by a Mississippi Court (with the all white Jury taking just an hour and a half to come to a verdict).
It shocked not just most in the United States, but it drew international attention to what was going on
Thank you Mr. Beat
If any, CJ Warren was a skilled politician. He already has the majority of the Court to side with Brown but knew in order to send a strong message, he must convince the entire Court. Stories go he revised the text of the decision several times over to assuage the concerns of some Justices. If not a CJ, he would have been an amazing US President.
Lawsuits to reform society can be both a bad and good thing. I hope mostly good.
Speaking of Education… Mr.Beat! I have a Supreme Court decision recommendation!
San Antonio vs Rodriguez. The 14th Amendment says that everyone is entitled to their rights and are protected equally under the law…however when it comes to education, it is supposedly not a right. Therefore it is constitutional for people of higher wealth, to get better education. I’m probably doing this very badly, but please go do a video on this! It’s an absolutely huge ruling yet no one knows about it!
I'm literally learning about this at school rn
Fantastic stuff, its a shame how many channels ya just don't see in recommended thanks to +Political Junkie for the link. keep up the vids new subscriber
Welcome Jay, and glad you found me! Thanks for the kind words. :D
You should do a vid of the “Southern Strategy”
Interesting side note: Derrick Ball, a black law professor at Harvard and elsewhere, worked to desegregate schools in Mississippi for the NAACP in 1959. By 1970, he was questioning the NAACP well-intentioned policy for de-segregating schools. (Wiki Derrick Bell: "Later in life, Bell questioned the approach of integration they took in these school cases. Throughout the South, often the winning rulings and the following desegregation caused white flight, ultimately keeping the schools segregated. Later, as an academic, these practical results led him to conclude that "racism is so deeply rooted in the makeup of American society that it has been able to reassert itself after each successive wave of reform aimed at eliminating it.") Bell saw these issues through the lens of realpolitik. His textbook, "Race, Racism, and American Law" on the subject (published in 1970) triggered the development of Critical Race Theory.
NOTE WELL, MAGA-HATTERS: Critical Race theory began as a critique of the well-intentioned (though naive, Bell would say) folks at the NAACP. Bell was questioning liberal assumptions, liberal pieties.
I think you should mention that residential redlining is resulting in more segregated school districts, thus undermining the decision.
Schools today are more segregated than they were before Brown v Board, just fyi
The decision has been gutted so many times it's de facto overturned at this point
Earl Warren man. What a chief justice
I know that Earl Warren was the Chief Justice of the US Supreme Court during the US Supreme Court Case
Brown v. Board of Education and Brown v. Board of Education is One of the Best Supreme Court Cases in American History and Brown v. Board of Education is One of the Most Important Supreme Court Cases in American History because it paved and cause integration in public schools and it Ended School Segregation in Public Schools and Earl Warren was an American Lawyer and
Earl Warren was the 14th Chief Justice of the US Supreme Court from October 5, 1953 to June 23, 1969 and
Earl Warren was Appointed by President Dwight D. Eisenhower and from October 5, 1953 to June 23, 1969 was
15 Years and Earl Warren was the Chief Justice of the US Supreme Court for 15 Years and Earl Warren had a Job for 15 Years and
Earl Warren Retired from his Job as the Chief Justice of the US Supreme Court in 1969 and it’s Amazing when someone has a
Job for 15 Years as an Adult.
Hello, could you please do am updated video on Marbury v Madison? Marbury is the most important case in our history, deserves to be re-done!
It would be pretty cool to see a video on Boumediene v. Bush as well? Please and thank you, I truly enjoy watching all of these videos! You are great!!! :)
+Daniela Mendez Yeah, I definitely plan on redoing Marbury v. Madison. Thanks for watching the series. My Patreon supporters get first dibs on video suggestions, though, so they keep me busy in the mean time.
Earl Warren assembled the Avengers for this one
We may have different skin colors but deep down we all have the same red blood.
The American experiment continues.
Nice comment. Gonna steal it.
thank you so much! so helpful!
Sounds like some 12 angry men stuff with how Earl got them all to be in favour of it.
Jackson's heart attack was NOT mild; he died of a second attack seven months later. Another Justice, Stanley Reed, practiced segregation in his personal life, and even refused to attend the Court's Christmas party, because the black staff members were invited. Reed even hired outside law clerks to draft a dissent. After Earl Warren secured Jackson's vote, he went to Reed and said, "Stan, you're all alone on this." Reed capitulated and made it unanimous. As for Jackson, he deplored segregation, calling it "Hitler's creed." What troubled him was overruling a precedent of more than fifty years' standing.
And that’s when everyone fell in love with Thurgood Marshall.

South: does a racism
Former General in the White House: *How many times do we have to teach you to mind your Uncle Sam?*
Great Video, as usual, Mr. Beat. I can't believe that it took so many years to, technically, get Separate But Equal overturned. Let me know what you think
Shoutout to the Supreme Court
As a Irish person who has a lot of respect for America and it's people in my opinion this is the most important decision that the Supreme Court has ever made and I have learned a lot from Johnny Cash, Jimmy Carter, and Elvis Presley have have thought me that not all of Americans from the Deep South hated Black African Americans.
Awesome to find it :)
It's shoking to think this was going on as late a 1950.
God put his hand on Robert Jackson's heart and told him "my son we need to have a talk"
RIP Linda Brown
This video taught me that I was born on the day Brown v Board of Education was settled May 17, 1954 very cool. St Luke's Hospital, K.C. MO but lived in Prairie Village KS.
There has been so much change in 2020 since the murder of George Floyd.
GREAT VIDEO IDEA coming up.
May I say it was a joy seeing the history of, J. C. Nichols, segregation abuse become the talk of the town in a bad way. We got the Fountain renamed during the protest. It was about time.
Sorry I ramble, can't spell, and believe the coma was created to denote a pause.
Paying attention and asking questions would have been good for me.
Hey man! Great video, it was educational and I found it funny, made a fun guy like me laugh, huhuhuhehuhuhehuh
Watch SCOTUS overturn this too
I love Eisenhower and Earl Warren. 😭
Hey Mr. Beat, Does Plessy or the Brown rulings have any relevance to "gender segregation", ie girls and boys bathrooms, locker rooms, etc?
Common sense requires a certain amount of leeway there. Obviously, those places need to be segregated, but they can't be entirely equal either, or you'd have to put urinals in the women's bathrooms and restrict the number of women's bathrooms to the same number as men's rooms in all public places. It would also be awkward to have condoms and pads sold in the bathrooms of both genders.

As a person who half black and half white, I always wonder what the public's perception of my mix would be during that time period. I'm not simply black or white and my skin is white passing though my features are of African decent. Would white supremacists still try to kill me? Would the black community still stand with me or firmly against (like how Malcom x was "anti-whites helping the black cause")? Basically, It would suck but idek if I'd be safe from either group.
Nearly every racist white group would see mixed people as bad. And I think based on biographies of the era black people had mixed feelings towards mixed families. So you'd have most likely been worse off (with no extra rights and being less welcome in black communities). Except if you are white passing (ie look white) at which point you could possibly integrated into white communities (and so have more rights than someone who was only black) but that's not a given.
It's been a year, but I'll answer your questions. Yes, you would have still been discriminated against according to the "one drop rule".
The black community would have still stood with you. They were the ones fighting against segregation.
