Brown v. Board of Education Audio File

Fifty years ago, the landmark court decision, Brown v. Board of Education, held that everyone deserves an equal opportunity to learn.  State courts across the United States, however, are beginning to realize that young people in poor communities in urban and rural areas do not, and have not, had the same access to a quality public education as children in schools located in wealthier communities.  Now it is time for our nation to bring out the spirit of Brown in its education policy. 

Listen to Congressman Fattah's message about his number one legislative priority, HR 236 - Student Bill of Rights.  Find out how this legislation can help bring the Brown decision to life, and how you can spread the word about this bill!
