From Chief Justice Warren's decision on the case of "Brown v The Board of Education"
"Segregation in public education has a detrimental effect upon Negro children, but denied relief on the ground that the Negro and white schools were substantially equal with respect to buildings, transportation, curricula, and educational qualifications of teachers...."
"Education of white children was largely in the hands of private groups. Education of Negroes was almost nonexistent, and practically all of the race were illiterate. In fact, any education of Negroes was forbidden by law in some states."
The African-American race was already mostly illiterate, but there were Jim Crow laws preventing white people from being their teachers. Meaning that not all schools had quality teachers, or money. Meaning that their school books, buildings equipment etc. was of less quality.

Historically, white schools received more funding and resources compared to black schools. Black schools were often segregated, underfunded, and provided lower quality education due to discriminatory policies and practices. This disparity in resources and opportunities contributed to the perpetuation of racial inequality in the education system.
Racially segregated public schools were developed as a way to enforce and maintain racial hierarchy and white supremacy in the United States. These policies were put in place to keep Black and other minority groups separate from white students, perpetuating discrimination and inequality in education.
Linda Brown was denied admission to an all-white elementary school in Topeka, Kansas because of the segregation policies at that time, which enforced separate schools for white and black students. This led to the landmark Supreme Court case Brown v. Board of Education, which ultimately ended segregation in public schools in the United States.
