On May 17, 1954, the U.S. Supreme Court declared segregated schools unconstitutional in Brown v. Board of Education. This pivotal decision ushered in an emotional and trying period in our nation's history, the effects of which still linger.
Recalling this tumultuous time, Toni Morrison has collected a treasure chest of archival photographs that depict the historical events surrounding school integration. These unforgettable images serve as the inspiration for Professor Morrison’s text—a fictional account of the dialogue and emotions of the children who lived during the era of separate-but-equal schooling. "Remember" offers a unique pictorial and narrative journey that introduces children to a watershed period in American history and its relevance today.
