In this volume, nine of America's top constitutional and civil rights experts have been challenged to rewrite the "Brown" decision as they would like it to have been written, incorporating what they now know about the subsequent history of the United States but making use of only those sources available at the time of the original decision. In addition, Jack Balkin gives a detailed introduction to the case, chronicling the history of the litigation in "Brown" and explaining the current debates over its legacy.
