that is who we are as the naacp. all of our policy concerns and issues germinate from that raw fact. individuals seeking to exploit us for free labor. we are seeing after the passage of the 13th, 14th, and 15th amendment, we had to exercise our right to vote. any way which we could build quality education systems equal to all, and ensure that we would not be exploited for cheap labor. when we look at today's reality, we have been here before. it is nothing new. but what is most important, the founders and the individuals who built the naacp understand that all politics are local. as a result, we began a movement across the country. today we have 2200 units, because the landscape of public policy often start in local communities. so we are in washington, d.c. as we walk up and down the halls of congress, he, like i know, many of the policy considerations started in some local community in this nation. often times, i asked the question, have you ever heard of columbiana, alabama? columbiana, alabama is where the case w

must continue to have the naacp. advocacy for social justice to ensure equal protection under the law is paramount in this time. just like those individuals who gathered in niagara, later in new york, and decided that whether you are black or white, male or female, we should all have a voice around the formation of public policy. the unique thing about the ,reation of the naacp in 1909 black men had a right that white women did not have, the right to vote. it was also recognized in 1909 that many african-americans at this time picked up arms, to reinforce union troops, to ensure that these united states remained as the united states and not two separate entities. that the confederate states of america, as jefferson davis was elected as president, was a movement of individuals who committed treason against this nation. it was a movement based on a policy landscape that they wanted to uphold, and agricultural-based economy, supported by exploiting people for free labor. we call that slavery. that the understood fight t

so the naacp was attempting to overturn that precedent. they knew they could try to do in one case, but if they lost that would be the end of their attempt. so really beginning in the 1930s, they began to file cases to chip away at that pres dependent. and it was to end it in law schools and work down to college and work down to elementary schools. the name brown is the first name to appear out of the-lace of plaintiffs. and here in kansas the local chapter of the naacp both the lawyers and activists recruited 13 parents, one of them oliver brown and 12 others were mothers. and all 13 parents had children that attended one of the four african-american schools here in topeka. so oliver brown was a friend of one of the lawyers that was the local council for the case, a man named charles bledso. so they recruited local people in the community, good up standing citizens that would want to participate in this case. so oliver brown was just one of those in this case. oliver's brown name is listed first even though there is another name on the li

why did the naacp issue the warning?missouri legislature passed senate bill 43, which makes it more di p they are members of a protected class based on race or gender. the organization says the senate bill creates a form of legal discrimination. missouri governor eric greitens, says it simply sets a threshold for claiming discrimination that is more in line with other traditionally, travel advisories department, warning people a countries with ongoing violence, frequent terrorist attacks or increased health risks. the american civil liberties union has issued travel advisories similar to the naacp's. one for arizona in 2010, and one in texas earlier this year. both were circulated after state laws passed allowing law enforcement officers to question a person's immigration status. >> when we return, geek goes chic. what to wear for the great american. who are these people? the energy conscious people among us say small actions can add up to something... humongous. a little thing here. a little thing there. starts to feel

so the question that was put before lawyers, the naacp lawyers struggled a bit. and the problem was that the answer was not going to be found in the questions that had been put before the lawyers and the court. >> the seminal question before the court in this case does racial segregation of children in public schools deprive minority children of equal protection of the laws under the 14th amendment? i would like to have you tell the story. because the chief justice decided that for this decision to work, it had to be unanimous. how did they get to unanimity. >> this is a riveting decision. and a riveting story of how they got there. one of the great examples of judicial statesmanship in american constitutional history. so the arguments are heard. as tomiko described. and the justices have their vote in a private conference. and warren begins by saying this is an easy case. this is an easy case, it's obvious that segregation has the intent and purpose and effect of degrading african-americans. and they take a vote. and it's not entirely clear what the first vote w

the only win for the naacp was a case called gephart out of delaware.t that time the court ordered that african-americans be admitted to the segregated schools. the davis decision came out of virginia, which challenged segregation in prince edwards county. and finally, there was a case called briggs versus eliot from south carolina, which was the first of the cases. but it was -- there were human stories behind each of those cases, and it's almost a coincidence that linda brown so movingly spoke became the face of all five cases. >> how does the court decide to enjoin cases like this into one specific case and give it that case's title? >> well, i think that in the circumstance, it consolidated these cases because they raised the same issue with the exception of bolling versus sharp, which is what jeff spoke about. they were consolidated for convenience and because it made sense to consolidate them and consider this issue as it was raised in these several states. the naacp strategy involved filing cases in the states where the issues were most stark as

the pdivision that was put befoe the naacp lawyers, they struggled a bit. and the problem was that the answer was not going to be found in the answers that had been put before the lawyers in the court. >> the question before the court in this case, does racial segregation of children in public schools deprive ninort children of equal protection of the laws under the 14th amendment? so i would like you to tell a story because the chief justice decide it had to be unanimous. how did he get to uniimity. >> the arguments are heard, and the justices have their vote in private conference, and warren begins by saying this is an easy case. it's easy because segregation has the intent of dividing. and they begin to take a vote. and it's not entirely clear what the vote was. there are two major hold outs. robert jackson and stanley reid from kentucky who argued segregation. so jackson is in the hospital. he'd a heart attack. and warren visits him. and jackson who tomiko says can't see the reason for brown, nevertheless is a new dealer who thinks that it's important a
