Board of Education Helps Launch Civil Rights Movement' data-article-id='3096'><script src='//news-app-staging.herokuapp.com/javascripts/getscripts.js'></script><link rel='stylesheet'

country&rsquo;s most important cases.</span> <span data-start-time='6479' data-end-time='14104'>It overturned an earlier Supreme Court decision, and it helped launch the civil rights movement.</span> <span data-start-time='14104' data-end-time='18479'>At the center of the case was a little girl.</span> <span data-start-time='18479' data-end-time='24104'>In the early 1950s, Linda Brown was eight years old.</span> <span data-start-time='24104' data-end-time='32563'>Every day, she had to travel for more than an hour to go to a local public school for black children.</span> <span data-start-time='32563' data-end-time='39854'>At the time, public school systems could legally separate black and white students.</span> <span data-start-time='39854' data-end-time='46146'>The reason related to a Supreme Court decision from 1896.</span> <span data-start-time='46146' data-end-time='55250'>It said that separating people by race was legal, as long as the buildings and equipment were equal.</span> <span data-start-time='55250' data-end-time='63729'>But the father of young Linda Brown did not think racial segregation was right or fair.</span> <span data-start-time='63729' data-end-time='71667'>He wanted his children to go to the school close to their house, even if the school was for white children.</span> <span data-start-time='71667' data-end-time='77875'>When he tried to register Linda there, school officials said no.</span> <span data-start-time='77875' data-end-time='83938'>So Brown and other activists took action in court against the law.</span>
