Brown V. Board of Education is an opportunity for black to enroll and persist in higher education. However, blacks faced barriers through the resistance of the group of dominant white supremacists. Scholars are interested in challenging black enrollment in higher education to help understand the black students’ experiences after Brown V. Board of Education, which outlawed Plessy V. Ferguson in the concept of “separate but equal” to keep black students from white students. In this essay, some cases regarding black enrollment will be investigated to bring light to black student experiences in higher education.
