Throughout the lesson, students will learn about monumental events and people related to school segregation, such as the Brown v. Board of Education decision, the Little Rock Nine, Ruby Bridges, the Civil Rights Act of 1964, and more. Students will further gain an understanding that regardless of the Brown ruling and legislation such as the Civil Rights Act, making integration a reality took years of struggle. The lesson will culminate with students exploring North Carolina's pro-segregation Pearsall Plan, for which they will write a speech advocating against.
