Clarence Thomas Attacks Brown v. Board of Education Ruling


In a stunning rebuke of the 1954 landmark Brown v. Board of Education ruling, Justice Clarence Thomas calls the decision outlaw segregation in public schools an overreach of judicial power....

From Axios
Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas issued a strong rebuke of the Brown v. Board of Education ruling on Thursday, suggesting the court overreached its authority in the landmark decision that banned separating schoolchildren by race.
Thomas attacked the Brown decision in a concurrence opinion that allowed South Carolina to keep using a congressional map that critics say discriminated against Black voters.
The court "took a boundless view of equitable remedies" in the Brown ruling, wrote Thomas, who in 1991 replaced Supreme Court Justice Thurgood Marshall — the first Black Supreme Court Justice and the lead lawyer in the Brown case.
Those remedies came through "extravagant uses of judicial power" to end racial segregation in the 1950s and 60s, Thomas wrote.
Federal courts have limited power to grant equitable relief, "not the flexible power to invent whatever new remedies may seem useful at the time," he said, justifying his opinion to keep a predominantly white congressional district in South Carolina.
The U.S. marked the 70th anniversary of the landmark Brown v. Board of Education ruling last week.
The 9-0 decision declared the "separate but equal" doctrine unconstitutional and helped usher in the Civil Rights Movement, though it took two decades to dismantle some school segregation policies.

Goodness. I'm shocked but I should be. This in attack on the late Supreme Court Justice Thurgood Marshall, in part, because he never endorsed Justice Thomas.

When they try again, he will also believe and publish that it was unconstitutional to free the enslaved. Hurts my soul

This baztard here… the best part he should’ve added was what my parents lived thru and believed: Keeping segregation, although it would’ve been unequal for a while, would’ve shown the flourish and magnificence of blk folks on OUR own. And THEY would still be trying to burn US down but knew that wouldn’t work much longer.
