Brown v. Board of Education (1954) | Separate Is NOT Equal
Of the many civil rights battles of the 1900s, none was more vital than overturning the separate but equal doctrine. This was the primary legal aim of a new civil rights organization founded in 1909 - the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP) - which embarked upon a strategy of first integrating educational institutions. After winning cases involving graduate education in the 1940s, the NAACP legal team - led by future Supreme Court Justice Thurgood Marshall - challenged segregated public school systems, alleging that such separate schooling was not equal.
On May 17, 1954, a unanimous Court agreed, ruling that in the field of public education the doctrine of separate but equal has no place. Separate educational facilities are inherently unequal. The Brown decision was both a culmination and starting point in the civil rights struggle: while the ruling marked the demise of the separate but equal doctrine, many more changes remained if America was to realize the promise of Brown.

Brown v. Board of Education 60th Anniversary Celebration Kicks Off with Public Service Announcement
In a public service announcement invoking the 60th anniversary of Brown v. Board of Education, the landmark Supreme Court decision that ended separate but equal in classrooms, the NAACP Legal Defense and Educational Fund today called on all Americans to join together to end inequality
Brown v. Board of Education was much more than a legal decision. This landmark case marked the beginning of the end of legal segregation in all aspects of American life, said Sherrilyn A. Ifill, President and Director Counsel of the NAACP Legal Defense Fund. We proudly celebrate Brown even as we recognize the ongoing, difficult challenges we face today not just in education, but in criminal justice, in economic opportunity and at the ballot box.
The 30-second television and radio PSA spot begins with the infamous 1963 inaugural speech of Alabama governor George Wallace, who defied desegregation efforts with the words, Segregation now, segregation tomorrow, segregation forever. In a voice-over accompanied by both historical and contemporary images, the message continues:
There will always be those who don't believe we can end inequality. But 60 years ago, one group of visionary lawyers and brave families together, changed America forever. We know that inequality still lingers, where we live, work, and learn. But when we stand together, we are stronger.
Together, we can end inequality.
A social media campaign accompanying the release of the PSA will invite supporters to share the video using the hashtag #Brownat60. The television and radio spots will begin airing on May 16 in the DC metro area, to coincide with a special commemorative luncheon on that day hosted by the NAACP Legal Defense Fund at the National Press Club. The event will include a conversation between Massachusetts Governor Deval Patrick and former Virginia Governor L. Douglas Wilder, moderated by journalist Charlayne Hunter Gault. In addition, Attorney General Eric Holder will be presenting a special award to Cecilia Marshall, widow of NAACP Legal Defense Fund founder Thurgood Marshall.

Chickamauga National Military Park
The Battle of Chickamauga, fought September 19--20, 1863, marked the end of a Union offensive in southeastern Tennessee and northwestern Georgia called the Chickamauga Campaign. The battle was the most significant Union defeat in the Western Theater of the American Civil War and involved the second highest number of casualties in the war following the Battle of Gettysburg. It was the first major battle of the war that was fought in Georgia.
Nez Perce National Historical Park
A short clip highlighting the artifacts and displays at the Nez Perce National Historical Park in Lapwai, Idaho. The entire Clearwater River Valley and adjacent Weippe Prairie are brimming with history and are well worth a look.
Lewiston Idaho was actually the first Capital of Idaho and Pierce Idaho was the first actual city in the state. There is a rich history in this area especially in regards to the Nez Perce or Nimipuu Indians. They were incredibly advanced horse breeders for the relatively short time they had utilized horses. The Appaloosa breed is a product of their efforts. They also were the Tribe that fought the US Army in the last great battles of the Indian Wars. Although they ultimately lost the war, they won many decisive battles against the US Calvary. Their superior horsemanship and horses bred specifically for the demands of the region proved invaluable.
This museum and collection of artifacts display their amazing culture and legacy to the region. There are a number of sites belonging to what is known as Nez Perce Historical Trail with sites in Oregon, Washington, Idaho, and Montana. These sites are associated with the Nez Perce's last great battle. I will include links below for more information on this Tribe and this region's rich and diverse history.
