'Separate but Equal' was the law of the land until the Supreme Court ruled in the Brown v. Board of Education case. Before this case, there were many others that unsuccessfully tried to desegregate schools. The Brown case is actually 5 combined cases that were argued by NAACP lead counsel, Thurgood Marshall. The 5 cases were: Delaware -- Belton v. Gebhart (Bulah v. Gebhart) Kansas -- Brown v. Board of Education Washington, D.C. -- Bolling v. Sharp South Carolina -- Briggs v. Elliot Virginia -- Davis v.
