Brown vs. BOE question?

Why do you think the NAACP targeted education as one of the key components to the Civil Rights Movement?
Thanks,

The reason for this strategy was that maintaining different schools for black children and white children meant that resources were not shared equally and therefore, black children received an inferior education. That reason was captured in the phrase "separate is inherently unequal." A further benefit of integration, though, is that the sense of "otherness" disappears in the relationships between children who are educated together. Children educated in mixed classrooms are more tolerant and inclusive than children educated in segregated environments and are more likely to base their judgments of people on merit rather than on skin color, leading to further integration of the society at large..
