Title: EWP Gray Commission Image Page 006
Description: Page 6 of the Gray Commission Report criticizes the Supreme Court’s Brown v. Board of Education decision for overturning long-standing legal precedents on segregation, arguing that it relied on psychological studies and sociological research rather than established law. The Commission expresses deep concern that the ruling undermines constitutional stability by allowing the Court to change interpretations at will, rather than following formal amendment processes. The report also highlights Virginia’s efforts to improve public education, emphasizing the financial investment in segregated schools and the progress made in increasing enrollment and teacher salaries for Black students.
