Linda Brown was one of thirteen students whose parents instituted the Brown v. Board of Education lawsuit. This lawsuit overturned the previous Plessy v. Ferguson case that passed the "separate-but-equal" doctrine, essentially declaring that segregation in schools and other public places was illegal.
