Back in season two of Revisionist History We did a four part series on civil rights. And the first episode of that series was called Miss Buchanan's period of adjustment.

It's still one of my favorite revisionist episodes of all time. It was about Brown versus Board of Education. The nineteen fifty four Supreme Court case that desegregated America's schools. And it's still today. Maybe the most famous of all Supreme Court cases.

And our episode was about what happened after the Brown decision came down. The heartbreaking consequence. That no one anticipated. And everyone seems to have forgotten. Anyway.

That is the first couple of minutes. The rest is $1.
