Think of funding, staffing, facilities, materials, teacher qualifications, the longstanding ramifications of not being allowed to attend a public school strictly because of the color of your skin.

I understand this..... but what I'm saying is that Mr Brown said that the all black school his child was attending was actually a really good school and he found the education his child got afterward at the all white school was pretty much the same..... but in the decision the court's language was pretty damn racist in stating that the black kids just couldn't possibly be able to get the same education and their education had been 'retarded' due to the fact it was all black school.... I just never realized how racist their opinion was.

Sorry for the thread if it's that big of an issue to some of you.... sheesh
