    •Brown v. Board of Education of Topeka
    https://www.history.com/topics/blank-history/brown-v-board-of-education-of-topeka
    My Reaction paper of this argument:
    Brown V. Board of Education by History.com Editors was one of the cornerstones of the civil
    rights movement that helped establish the precedent that “Separate-but-equal” education
    and other services were not, in fact, equal at all. Separate but equal doctrine was ruled in
    1896 that racially segregated public facilities. The ruling constitutionally sanctions laws
    barring African Americans from sharing the same buses, schools and other public facilities as
    whites and established the “separate but equal” doctrine that would stand for the next six
    decades. In the case that would become most famous, a plaintiff named Oliver Brown filed a
    class-action suit against the Board of Education of Topeka, Kansas, in 1951 after his
    daughter, Linda Brown, was denied entrance to Topeka’s all white elementary schools.
    Brown claimed that schools for the black children were not equal to the white schools.
    The civil right movement that was published by History, com Editors is a great action to deny
    the “separate but equal” doctrine. Although this doctrine gave an equal access to facilities,
    it is still unequal that there is a barrier between the whites and the browns. Brown and
    white people should sit in one table of brotherhood without bitterness and hatred.

    • Plessy v. Ferguson https://www.history.com/topics/black-history/plessy-v-ferguson
    My reaction paper of this arguments:
    Plessy v. Ferguson by History.com Editors, was a landmark U.S Supreme court decision that
    upheld the constitutionality of racial segregation under the “Separate but equal” doctrine.
    This case stemmed from an African- American train passenger Homer Plessy who refused to
    sit in a car for black people. The Supreme Court rejected Plessy’s argument that he was
    violated in his constitutional rights. As a result, Separate public accommodations based on
    race became commonplace. Plessy filed a petition against the presiding judge, claiming that
    the law violated the Equal Protection Clause of the 14th Amendment.

    • Right to education as a fundamental human right


    https://www.manilatimes.net/2018/11/04/opinion/columnists/right-to-education-as-a-
    fundamental-human-right/461813/
    My reaction paper of this arguments:
    The right to education is recognized in international Law as a fundamental human right.
    International human rights law lays down core provision regarding the right to education.
    State obligations under these international laws include providing free and compulsory
    primary education. Although International laws and treaties only blind states, and not
    private entities or non-state actors. Thus the right to education, as a fundamental human
    right under international law is demandable against the state and not against private
    entities in the absence of the state intervention.
