Integrated School, Washington DC, 1955
Légende
Entitled: "School integration. Barnard School, Washington, D.C." shows a line of African-American and white school girls standing in a classroom while boys sit behind them. Desegregation is the process of ending the separation of two groups usually referring to races. This is most commonly used in reference to the United States. Desegregation was long a focus of the American Civil Rights Movement, both before and after the United States Supreme Court's decision in Brown v. Board of Education, particularly desegregation of the school systems and the military. Racial integration, or simply integration, includes desegregation (the process of ending systematic racial segregation). In addition to desegregation, integration includes goals such as leveling barriers to association, creating equal opportunity regardless of race, and the development of a culture that draws on diverse traditions, rather than merely bringing a racial minority into the majority culture. Desegregation is largely a legal matter, integration largely a social one. Although widespread, this distinction between integration and desegregation is not universally accepted. Photographed by Thomas J. O'Halloran May 27, 1955.
