The Supreme Court’s Impact on American Law: Landmark Cases and Decisions
<p><strong>Brown v. Board of Education (1954):</strong></p>
<p>A watershed moment in American legal history, Brown v. Board of Education declared state laws establishing separate public schools for black and white students to be unconstitutional.
