The Southern Historical Association’s Graduate Council and Historians of the Twentieth-Century United States are proud to announce our collaborative online event ‘Contested Legacies and Continuing Struggles: Brown v. Board, 70 Years On’, to be held at 13.00 EDT/18.00 BST on Wednesday 15th May, via Zoom. Marking Brown’s 70th anniversary, we’ll explore the unresolved questions and contested legacies of this pivotal decision and struggles concerning race, equity, affirmative action, and educational censorship today.  Our three distinguished panellists, all experts on twentieth-century American education, include Kate Ballantyne (Liverpool John Moores University), Zoë Burkholder (Montclair State University), and Dionne Danns (University of Illinois, Chicago).
