Some of the legal remedies that the United States Supreme Court’s 1955 Brown II decision prescribed to eliminate racially segregated education were faulty because they failed to take into account important findings of a sociological study on community experiences in school desegregation. First, the Court assigned primary responsibility for school desegregation to local school authorities and to U.S. district courts because it believed that these local entities could best change local regulations and thereby accomplish school desegregation. But the study had found that successful desegregation could occur in places where regulations permitted other local institutions to remain segregated. Second, the Court instructed school authorities to admit racial minorities to public schools as soon as practicable, yet it also said that school authorities would be viewed as making good faith efforts if they proceeded “with all deliberate speed,” rather than acting immediately. But the study had found that unclear policies create confusion and facilitate resistance, whereas clear-cut policies administered with resolution and decisiveness early in the process are of great importance in accomplishing desegregation with a minimum of difficulty. Sadly, as a result of such flaws in the Court’s remedies, the opportunity to attend integrated schools was denied to many minority students for up to a decade after the original Supreme Court decision.
