OverviewMy forty-year career began in a North Louisiana high school in 1969, federal marshals stepping in right behind me, there to enforce the 1954 Supreme Court ruling. My book project will look back on the historic Brown v. the Board of Education of Topeka upon its sixty-year anniversary, from my personal perspective. Without exception when I mention my project to friends and peers, a story flows out of them of how the ruling affected their lives as teachers or in their home or college, when they were parents or students-all primary sources. Those who remember the early days of the ruling are fewer now. Memories pulled up from the past show the complexity of the implementation of a law which forced a behavior change couched in the hope of changed attitudes. These stories disclose what schools were like and what happened from my experience.
