Crystal Meredith V. Jefferson County Public Schools

Teddy B. Gordon has practiced law for forty-nine years, the last forty years out of the 102-year-old building he stands before at 8th and Market, Downtown Louisville. Please join Teddy Gordon as he recounts his eight-year journey battling the Jefferson County Public Schools in a Constitutionally legal brawl to improve the educational outcome of African American students who were assigned and bussed to poorer performing schools. Educational outcome is the only key to unlock the chains of poverty Teddy revisits this million-to-one event: a successful oral argument before the Supreme Court of the United States.
