The presentations based on the case Brown v. Board talks about that the question of school segregation/integration and how it is very different and hard. Zay talked about the situation of black schools, and how lack of resources and not having the proper teachers slow down the development and abilities of black children. He talked about on interracial marriages showing how it may disrupt community relations and he also reflected over the fears of integration on both sides. Skylar talked about emphasizing the fact that desegregation is a slow moving process that takes time to develop. She says that there was separation in facilities and discrimination based on institutions black and white. She also talked about how over 75 percent of African Americans hold low-paying jobs because of their skin color they do not get the same treatment as white people even with pay.
Katelyn talked about the racial integration of schools and how the schools should equally be in good shape and that one should not be old and also to have better teachers to help everyone equally learn, which would bring better opportunities to African Americans. Since there is not any reason to repeat the institutions financially, the resources can be joined together to help make it become equal based on education. Alyson talked about how the 14th Amendment's clause and equal protection has been very helpful in ending segregation to help make sure there is equality for all students regardless of skin color.
Justin talked about the weakness in the separate but equal doctrine and he also encouraged that real equality could not be completed without equal resources and opportunities. Christopher talked about a critical question about social contributions, he talked about the economic difference in treatment between African Americans and that the rest can be explained by the lack of fairness that deal with and also their interaction with society. While Cam says integration should not be allowed because he believes it would not benefit anyone and that it could potentially harm both the black and white community. Integrating the community may cause violence and also ruin the chance to further maybe down the line solve the issue by integrating later. Hayes says splitting the Red Sea is how they should split the schools and keep them segregated as a whole. the black students did not have a problem with the schools they were in until some white people made a comment about wanting to integrate schools.
Jake talks about a case that a man wanted to have his son go to a newer built school and mentioned the equal protection clause. He mentioned that the court would have to overturn different laws in order to integrate schools. He also talks about the legal difficulties of the issue. Based on listening to each presentation during the trial I really believe those were in support for education had very strong arguments and delivered information that opened minds and ears to want to hear more of their side to the story and what they think is best for black students. I was on the side of Brown because I want the best for African Americans and for them to get equal treatment when it comes to schools and making sure everything is equal between the African American students and also the White students. In the end Judge Smith ruled in favor of Brown’s side because they had stronger arguments.
