Brown v. Board 50th Anniversary Coalition

Purpose:

50th Anniversary Coalition logo. The Brown v. Board 50th Anniversary Coalition was established for the purpose of networking community efforts for several commemorative events in 2004, including the Grand Opening of the Brown v. Board National Historic Site in Topeka. One of the main goals of the coalition is to educate the public regarding the key role played by Kansas in shaping national and international policy.

The Brown v. Board 50th Anniversary Coalition was established to commemorate the convergence in 2004 of several turning points in Kansas history, including the 150th anniversary of Territorial Kansas and the City of Topeka and the 200th anniversary of the Lewis and Clark Expedition.
