Passport
About this show
In 1958, the Commonwealth of Virginia refused the U.S. Supreme Court's mandate to integrate its public schools in the aftermath of the Brown v. Board of Education decision. Several counties "locked down" or closed their public schools instead of allowing black students into all-white schools. Discover this dark moment in history through interviews, academic commentary and archival footage.
