It is hard to overstate the importance of #BrownVBoard. A quality education isn’t a luxury, it’s a necessity. And until #BrownVBoard, it was a necessity that was denied to generations of Americans under the guise of “separate but equal”
While we commemorate #BrownVBoard, we must also remember that the dream of providing an equal educational opportunity for all children is still unfulfilled 64 years later, & wide disparities in resources still exist between schools and districts in many places
The fight isn’t over to ensure every American, no matter their race or ethnicity, receives equality and justice both in and out of the classroom #BrownVBoard 
The young girl who sparked #BrownVBoard, Linda Brown, passed away in March. Today, we remember her courage and follow the trail she and her father blazed pushing for civil rights → nyti.ms/2Grt68K
