Uncommon Courage: The Story of Briggs V. Elliott, South Carolina's Unsung Civil Rights Battle
Description:
Although most history books cite Brown v Board of Education of Topeka, Kansas as the litigation that ended school segregation, a little-known case from Clarendon County, South Carolina actually spearheaded the civil rights movement.
In 1954, Briggs v Elliott had little immediate impact on daily life in public schools for African Americans. But in its symbolic, unanimous decision, the U.S. Supreme Court put segregationists on the defensive. The law was finally on the side of those who wanted to make the guarantee of equal treatment in the Fourteenth Amendment a reality.
Now – on the 50th anniversary of the case – join us to revisit the Briggs v Elliott decision by exploring the uncommon courage of the residents of Clarendon County who sacrificed so much. In this stunning pictorial history, we will visit with the people who brought this case to life and changed history.
