That was my first thought- things were just hunky dory in America until those darned blacks started stirring the **** with 'Brown VS the Board of Education'. I'm very grateful for that decision on a personal level, as it opened the door for kids like mine (hearing disability) to attend the same schools as their peers. An unintended consequence, but certainly a positive one. Who knows what peripheral positives might occur when we stop denying a very large segment of our citizenry the same rights afforded to the majority?
