===== Definition ===== <br />
<br />
American school segregation refers to the practice of separating students based on their race or ethnicity in the educational system. This practice was common in the United States prior to the Civil Rights Movement in the 1960s, when laws requiring racial segregation in schools were struck down by the Supreme Court.<br />
<br />
During the era of segregation, African American students were often forced to attend separate, underfunded schools with fewer resources and opportunities compared to their white counterparts. This segregation not only perpetuated racial inequalities in education, but also reinforced broader social and economic disparities between white and non-white Americans.<br />
<br />
Although legal segregation in schools has been abolished, de facto segregation still exists in many areas due to factors such as residential segregation and economic inequality. Efforts to address school segregation and promote educational equity continue to be a focus of civil rights advocates and policymakers in the United States.<br />
