brown v. board of education and listen to linda brown on the roots of this case. >> my memory of brown began in the fall of 1950. in the quiet kansas town of topeka, where a mild-mannered man took his 7-year-old daughter by the hand and walked briskly to the all-white school and tried without success to enroll his child. that parent in topeka child to enroll their children was long overdue. many evenings my father would arrive home to find my mother upset because i had to take a walk like she did many years before and catch a school bus and debus two miles across town. i can remember that walk. i can only make half of it some days because the cold would get too bitter. i can still remember taking that bitter walk and the terrible cold that would cause my tears to freeze upon my face. >> she is talking about her experience as a school child in topeka, kansas and tonight for the next 90 minutes, we will learn about how it came to the court and let me introduce you to our guests. a harvard univer

and with that, let me turn it over to general brown. gen. brown: thank you, mr. secretary.ood afternoon, everyone. in an address to congress near the end of world war i, president woodrow wilson laid out his 14-point program for world peace. he asserted that political independence and territorial integrity required an association of nations, unity against authoritarian aggressors. he said, and i quote, "we cannot be separated in interests or divided in purpose. we stand together until the end." president wilson never realized his vision for a strong coalition of nations based on his 14 points. the world had to endure a second world war, a war more brutal, more costly than the first. before there was collective will to come together in common purpose. the principles president wilson championed we live in today. that order is being challenged by russia's illegal and unprovoked attack on the sovereign nation of ukraine. ukraine defense contact group has stood together in the face of this russian aggression. it will continue to stand together to support ukraine and defend the i

[cheers and applause] >> thank god eisenhower was president, thank god we had someone who stood up. the little rock nine were met with vitriol and violence. today the resistance comes in other insidious forms. an extreme movement led by predecessor and his maga republican allies gutted affirmative action in college admissions. my predecessor and his extreme maga friends are going after diversity, equity and inclusion all across america they want a country for some, not for all. let's ourselves, folks. this is the god's truth that i'm sang my predecessor and his extreme maga friends are responsible for taking away other freedoms, from the freedom the freedom to choose. i've always believed that the promise of america is bi

daily herald at brown university.me to you three. thanks for joining us. spencer, you have said it has been extremely tense on campus at emory. tell me why. what does it look and feel like? >> over the last five days, we have had a series of protests in response to the war in gaza and also in response to the police going to campus on thursday and arresting 20 members of the emory community, including 20 people that are directly students or faculty at the university. amna: when you say it's tense, what does that mean? what does it look and feel like? >> every day, people are on edge when there are emory police coming to campus. a lot of the student protesters and students for socialism have been affected by the way that the protests were handed on thursday and have been scared of student protests and additionally, i believe a lot of jewish students on campus are uneasy with the content of what has been going on in the protests, with chanting from "from the river to the sea" being used. students have called that antisem

they reopened brown v.l purpose, to desegregate topeka schools when i was living in topeka, and so that case continues to resonate in both good and ways that still need to be relitigated in some ways, but also to be continually enforced. geoff: annette gordon reed, you could argue that schools remain segregated today because neighborhoods in which they're located remains segregated. and that education policy in many ways is linked to housing policy. how do you see it? annette: oh, absolutely. that's it. i mean, we fund schools through property taxes, and so where you live determines the kind of the schools that you go to. and so, as long as you have a pattern of segregation in housing, you're going to have segregated schools as well. so that's been a big driver of it. there's a lot of a lot of moving parts to all of this. i mean, brown was important as a symbolic matter, and actually, things did change to some degree, but it's largely the symbolic import of saying that separate was inherently unequal. and s

interfere with recessed laws, and brown v.rd, the court went beyond its power to impose integration in public and it education, that it led us to start striking down these maps and got us to where we were, and we need to rewind back to the 1950s. i don't think it was a coincidence that this was anniversary of the brown v. board decision. >> case that was argued by thurgood marshall, the man he od replaced on the supreme court.

how does he justify attacking -- where did the brown decision come from?ice thomas goes back and says actually, federal courts don't never have the power to strike down redistricting maps. he says whether they are racist, whether they are partisan, whether they are mal apportioned, that federal courts simply lack the constitutional authority to step in and redraw those maps. that is true, he says, even when state legislatures are openly racist, when they say we are going to target black voters because of their race and diminish the power, justice thomas is too bad, federal courts can't step in so he trace this back to the history of federal courts intervening in these disputes and he says the root of the problem was brown versus board of education because in brown, this court started expanding its ability to interfere with racist laws and the court went beyond its power to impose integration on public education and that just got us drunk on this judicial authority and lettuce to start striking down these maps and got us to the place where we are now and we
