History Day Students

The Brown Foundation has developed a 'History Day Packet' complete with commonly asked questions and the Brown family's responses, along with other resources for students, such as the DVD A Case for Equality: Reading, Writing and Resistance. If you would like to receive this packet, please call them at (785) 235-3939 or send an email by clicking here.

Many of the individuals and families involved in the Brown v. Board of Education case prefer not to grant interviews. However, the Brown Foundation has collected the names of several individuals who are willing to speak about the case. More information on these individuals may be found at the following link:
