Brown v. Board in the news

Hello Mr. Brown can you please tell us a little bit more about your involvement in the case? I was a plaintiff from Massachusetts. I wanted non-segregated elementary schools like many other parents. What were your views on civil rights and the Jim Crow laws? I didn’t support the laws about segregation, and that’s why I sued the board of education because it didn’t support my views on the 14th amendment rights that my son had. What role did the NAACP play in this decision? NAACP activists helped me bring the case before the federal court. What would you like the out turn of this case to be? I would like the decision to rule in my favor; because I believe the school board should remove the segregation in the elementary school my son attends. Thank you for your time Mr. brown.
