In Brown v. Board of Education, 347 U.S. 483 (1954), attorneys for the NAACP referred to the phrase ``equal but separate ''used in Plessy v.

Separation of church and state in the United States
The incorporation of the First Amendment establishment clause in the landmark case of Everson v. Board of Education has impacted the subsequent interpretation of the separation of church and state in regard to the state governments.

A more recent case involving the application of this principle against the states was Board of Education of Kiryas Joel Village School District v. Grumet (1994).

Civil rights movement (1896–1954)
Two United States Supreme Court decisions -- Plessy v. Ferguson, 163 U.S. 537 (1896), which upheld ``separate but equal ''racial segregation as constitutional doctrine, and Brown v. Board of Education, 347 U.S. 483 (1954) which overturned Plessy -- serve as milestones. This was an era of new beginnings, in which some movements, such as Marcus Garvey's Universal Negro Improvement Association, were very successful but left little lasting legacy, while others, such as the NAACP's painstaking legal assault on state - sponsored segregation, achieved modest results in its early years but made steady progress on voter rights and gradually built to a key victory in Brown v. Board of Education (1954).
