Brown v. Board of Education [SEP] Reaction and aftermath
Although Americans generally cheered the Court's decision in "Brown", most white Southerners decried it. Many Southern white Americans viewed "Brown v. Board of Education" as "a day of catastrophe—a Black Monday—a day something like Pearl Harbor." In the face of entrenched Southern opposition, progress on integrating American schools moved slowly: In Virginia, Senator Harry F. Byrd organized the Massive Resistance movement that included the closing of schools rather than desegregating them. For several decades after the Brown v. Board decision, African-American teachers, principals, and other school staff who worked in segregated Black schools were fired or laid off as Southerners sought to create a system of integrated schools with White leadership.
