Question
what was the main reason african american parents sued a kansas school board in 1954? to advocate the desegregation of public schools to promote nonviolent resistance as a means of achieving civil rights to encourage the segregation of schools to demand that their childrens education be equal to white students education
In 1954, in the landmark Brown v. Board of Education case (stemming from the lawsuit by African - American parents against a Kansas school board), the main goal was to end school segregation and advocate for desegregation of public schools. Non - violent resistance was a broader civil rights movement strategy, not the direct reason for this lawsuit. Encouraging segregation was the opposite of their aim. While equal education was part of the goal, the key was desegregating schools to achieve that equality.
