The document summarizes the 1968 Supreme Court case Green v. County School Board of New Kent County. It discusses how New Kent County in Virginia maintained a segregated school system with one all-white school and one all-black school, despite the Brown v. Board of Education ruling. To comply with desegregation orders, the school board implemented a freedom of choice plan that allowed students to choose which school to attend each year. However, no white students chose to attend the black school. The Supreme Court ruled that the freedom of choice plan was not effective at transitioning to a desegregated school system and placed the burden of desegregation on the school board.
