The correct option is A

The Supreme Court case Brown v. Board of Education, is a landmark judicial ruling by the Supreme Court of the United States that stated that state laws establishing separate schools for African-American and white students denied equal educational opportunities. The ruling was issued on May 17, 1954, unanimously (9-0) by the Warren Court; and established that "separate educational facilities are inherently unequal". With this, the Supreme Court reversed the existing precedents from Plessy against Ferguson in 1896. As a result of this ruling, racial segregation came to be considered as a violation of the Equal Protection Clause of the Fourteenth Amendment to the United States Constitution. . This ruling opened the way for racial integration and achieving civil rights for African Americans.
