(Un)Intended Consequences?

The Impact of the Brown v. Board of Education Decision on the Employment Status of Black Educators

Linda C. Tillman

Wayne State University

The displacement of Black educators after the Brown v. Board of Education decision was an extraordinary social injustice. The wholesale firing of Black educators threatened the economic, social, and cultural structure of the Black community, and ultimately the social, emotional, and academic success of Black children. The author presents a historical perspective of the work of Black educators in the pre-Brown era; discusses the impact of Brown on the professional careers of Black teachers, principals, and superintendents; describes some of methods used to fire Black educators; and concludes with a discussion of the impact of these losses on the Black community and an agenda for Black education.

Key Words: Black educators • Brown v. Board of Education • Black education
