70 years ago, Brown v. Board of Education established that it was unconstitutional to racially segregate students in public schools. Today, its legacy looms large over the landscape of American education, but for many, its promise of equality has remained unrealized. Basic Black host Tanisha Sullivan, Esq., President NAACP Boston, spoke with:

Erika Richmond Walton, a Litigation Fellow at Lawyers for Civil Rights, a private, nonprofit, nonpartisan legal organization that provides volunteer legal representation to victims of discrimination based on race or national origin.

Ronald Mitchell, the editor, co-owner, and publisher of the Bay State Banner and the President and CEO of Mitchell Stark Enterprises.

Phillip Martin, a senior investigative reporter for the GBH News Center for Investigative Reporting and is a multi-award-winning journalist.

Devin Morris, the co-founder and executive director of The Teachers’ Lounge, a non-profit with the mission of diversifying the people, thoughts, and actions of the educational workforce in the Greater Boston Area and beyond.
