Riassunto:

While the Supreme Court's Brown ruling historically signified the official end of racial segregation in the United States, a critical flaw was contained in the decision by the calculated instruction that desegregation should proceed with "all deliberate speed," argues Ogletree (Harvard Law School). Ogletree combines discussion of the legal battles leading up to and following Brown , a decidedly negative appraisal of the ruling's relevance to the educational opportunities of the majority of African Americans, and a relatively more positive exploration of its impact on his own life and the opportunities it provided him at Stanford University and Harvard Law.
